Default Wearing just the liner of the parka...

Ok potential can of worms...

Can anyone show where in the uniform regulations it says you can't wear just the liner of the parka? There is a blurb on the women's outerwear section about not wearing the Patagonia liner, but that's it. Is there a uniform reg somewhere other than PFC that I can't find??

Good lord. You fly cargo. Who cares?! Why do fedex and ups and atlas and kalitta and all other cargo carriers have to wear uniforms? Who sees you that’s gonna care? Are your boxes really that picky? Why are pilots so freaking concerned all the time about what everybody else is wearing? None of it any effect on one’s ability to fly an airplane.

I’m not a Karen this is the opposite you *******s!

A buddy just got called out on it so we’d love to find out if it’s even written anywhere, otherwise he can tell the person to go pound sand.

Thanks for your help this forum is awesome!!

Side note:

To anyone not currently employed at fedex that is reading this toxic cesspool of a forum, 99% of our crew force doesn’t act like the anonymous losers on here. Don’t let it scare you off from a great job.

Lesson finally learned for me I guess.

Should have lead with that! I’ll say hey in ops.. You’ll be the guy wearing a mask so shouldn’t be difficult to mistake you.

Anybody can make a mistake, Lord knows I have, but making a mistake and upping the ante by making a second one rather than apologizing isn’t a mistake. It’s called being a jerk.

When the parka was new, the guidance was you could wear the outer shell, the inner liner, or both in combination. Where that was, or if it still exists, I don’t know.
