"Let me ask you this. Is a non degreed Captain with a civilian background paired with a retired Colonel with an advanced degree as his F/O somehow an injustice to you sf3?" (Left Wing quote)

BTW, to answer your question, absolutely 100% IS NOT AN INJUSTICE!

If I left that impression then everything I've said has been completely misconstrued.

Sorry.

Maybe it was best just to keep things simple and argue about back packs? I think that me trying to broaden the topic might have been a mistake.

For the record, I have read the entire thread and nobody is muddying the waters. My opinion, based on what I read from ALL parties, stands.

My shirt is usually wrinkled at some point. When I throw it on at 4 am and then:
-Drive an hour to the airport
-Sit in a terminal waiting for my flight
-Sit on a plane commuting to work
-Sit in the lounge in the crewroom waiting for my showtime
-Sit in the plane for 4 legs

Towards the middle of the day it is not looking as crisp as it was when I put it on. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt if I see them with a wrinkled shirt..maybe they are having a day like me and after 12 hours in a chair their shirt lost the battle.


As for the ipod, if they are sitting in a terminal in a chair waiting for something and they want to listen to music, why not. I consider them being on "break" since we all know they are not getting paid. If music is their thing than all the power to them.

Backpacks...who cares. Next.

Which is exactly why I love the flight case sticker that says "If You Can Read This, I'm Not Being Paid"
