So what was the reply when O said he WAS the uniform police? "OH! You look so much younger/are so much taller/more handsome in person!"? Mon Dieu!

Hmmm, most of these attributes I could understand you knowing, but at least one attribute I'd have to say "NTTIAWWT?"

Trashy,
Don't take offense at my comment, it was meant for that 5% you speak of, not upstanding, professional, good looking, clean shaven, nicely cut haired, well hung guys in great shape, like you.
Seriously, you're exactly correct, and it's those few guys who somehow always manage to find their way into notoriety, and along the way ruin it for the vast majority, whose only offense is that they are lumped in with the bad apples. But then again, hey, it was only the Air France First Class lounge. Thankfully it wasn't Air India's.

OK, now that you've asked, I'll tell you. It's because you wear that damn 4" watch on your wrist. Hell, it's so big it might as well be a sundial. In fact, maybe that's what it is. Anyway, another old adage is: your size is inversely proportional to the size of your watch. Navy pilot.....hardly......I didn't work for a living....flying for the USAF.

The guy was improperly dressed per our FOM. Period. But his inappropriate response to "O" really demonstrates this guy's lack of professionalism. All he had to do was simply be polite. He could have just said, "Thanks for the advice." Then, when it was revealed to him that the person whom he was addressing was the Chief Pilot, the situation would have been far less uncomfortable. It doesn't matter if it was the SCP or a fellow crew member letting this guy know he was not in the proper attire, his crass remark was uncalled for. Using a little tact goes a long way. On top of that, wearing the company ID in civies in the AF lounge? Unsat.
