You certainly don't exude confidence being dressed like that. It's embarrassing that I can't tell you from our passengers.
That being said, it's kind of Spirit's fault. If they really cared what we looked like, they would have a rep come in from the vendor and fit our crews. They would also give first year guys a jacket.
On top of it all, these are the worst quality uniforms I have ever had.

Guys, during this time of contract negotiations being that the company doesn't want to negotiate for a fair contract, remember our slogan, "WHATEVER IT TAKES"..The only way we are going to put the squeeze on this management is to NOT pick up anything additional, no matter how appealing. I understand we all want to make as much per month as we can as do I, I have given up thousands to "HOLD THE LINE". We must be united during this negotiations process or the company will have no reason to give us an industry standard contract.. I am willing to give up a few hundred dollars this month to get multiple thousands over the life of a new contract. Let's all take a pledge to stand firm, gel together as 1 and get the contract we deserve.. JUST SAY NO.... WHATEVER IT TAKES!!!

I've flown with new hires who look like complete slobs because that's who they are hiring. Guys with little pride/self respect. Do you really think polished individuals are going to come here?. I'm talking about guys who text while running the before T/O Checklist for Christ sake
PS. I'm not referring to all new hires but have absolutely noticed a trend lately
