Those guys making $250k+ and not wanting to spend more than $20 on pants are the same ones who try to convince everyone to switch their cell service to some off-brand company that rents bandwidth on the other guys towers. Yes your data gets throttled after using 250MB and the calls are dropped constantly but if you wait until you’re on hotel WiFi you don’t really notice it. Plus you save $20/month!!!!!
If you’re the head of a billion dollar internet start up and want to wear shorts and flip flops to work, so be it. This job has always had a uniform and it’s not a very expensive one.

For a lot of them it’s some kind of passive aggressive swipe at our uniform provider/ company, or bullheaded notion that mass production crew uniform providers will somehow just send that perfect fit to their mailbox with no adjustments needed.
Looking professional and dressing well is a choice. It usually requires a modicum of effort and money. Those that chose to look like a sloppy buffoon are just that regardless of whatever reasoning they use to justify it.
Even second year FO’s on our industry bottom compensated contract are making 2+ times the national average in income. Spend $4-500 over the course of a couple months and bother to look like a pro.

I’ve spent three figures on a single pair of custom made pants (I have more than one pair too.) The fit, feel, and look is like nothing you can buy on the rack at a Dept. Store. I’ve spent years and thousands of dollars to get here. I like looking like a million bucks. It’s all priorities I suppose. Dress for the job you want not the one you have. I want Spirit lol, with Delta pay.
