Woah! Wait a minute! I think I may have actually seen this guy. Does he by chance, carry a guitar on his back too? I think I was in Chicago at the time, not sure.

Gojet just relaxed their policy for the summer months. More companies technically mandate it than I thought ...

Not quite correct. They will reimburse you for it if:

1. prior to purchase you submit a request form in triplicate
2. send in five copies of the receipt (one on white paper, two on goldenrod, one tarragon, and one pearlized opal)
3. you can wield a crow bar big enough to pry it out of SM's tight-fisted claw.

You forgot that the receipts must be delivered by a midget dressed like Elvis on Fridays between 1618 and 1622.

Classic Delta story: A Captain's hat blew off and was run over by a truck. His claim to be reimbursed for the cost of a new one was denied, so on the next trip, he told the S/O: "Let me fill out the pay sheet this time."
When the pay sheet was turned in, clerks were puzzled by a note in the "remarks" section: "The hat's in there. You find it." :D

OF COURSE hats are mandatory! When you get to hotel room, gather wallet, lanyard, keys, all visible hotel pens (and any other potential usable crap) and put into hat. At wake-up call (5 min before bus leaves), throw on clothes, gather hat-crap, throw hat into suitcase or flight kit (until in next hotel room), and run. Hat is always worth 3-4 minutes extra sleep. Hat is ESSENTIAL! Sam
