I budgeted and saved for up to 3 months on training pay. When all is said and done I won’t see a check that’s more than $800 until my 5 month of employment. I’d rather pay my mortgage than buy a $500 leather jacket or a navy blazer that won’t be part of our uniform in 3 months. We all shelled out the cash for the proper uniforms pants, shirts, ties and whatever else will make us look professional once we hit the line, if you’re getting hung up over a new hire pilot wearing a coat that actual protects them against the elements during a walk around in -10 and snow then you may need to re-evaluate some things about yourself.

What I don’t understand is why we have so many pilots here who sit and stew about what the other pilots are wearing to the point that they lose sleep; it isn’t worth it! If it really is bothering you then kindly.... if you can do that... let them know that they look out of place and should probably look into some new clothes. Don’t bring it here to the message boards, that’s too petty. And it’s only duty on to duty off, what your co pilot wears at the curb waiting for the driver is up to them.
You guys should be focused on the issues that are much bigger.
