That's why we're wearing plum.
ALPA shouldn't be involved in this. Now our own union is "guilty" of complicity and is just as incompetent as the company. Hate (hate) to blame our union. But it's likely time to really get the phone ringing up at ALPA and light it up.
Phone calls are more effective than email or PDR. Reps hate to be slammed on their phones, but that's how you get and retain their attention.

I’ll probably never wear it.

It's more than just a tie color. It's how our customers view the uniform and the professionalism it represents. It's the same reason an attorney doesn't show up in a court room wearing a neon green tie. Appearances matter. And with that purple tie you may as well put on a pair of clown shoes and carry a horn while riding a unicycle.

It's 50% Luftwaffe, and 50% 1973 San Francisco pimp.
After we exchange Hail Hitler Salutes in the crew room, we're gonna do a funkey jive hand shake. At our crew brief it won't surprise me to hear a few star trek trivia questions followed by the solid gold dancer review.
Optional uniform items: Plum feather for the cap (gotta pimp it out), barney sing a long song book (gotta get in rhythm), platform shoes (its all about the walk), bell bottoms are approved (disco is back).
Only crew vans with disco ball will be ALPA approved. The ladies man from SNL will be approving all ALPA hotels.

You guys sure whine a lot. It's just a frickin uniform. Talk about first world problems.
I wonder how many of you will remember this anger when you cash that check on the 15th. Lots of pilots out there dying to take your job. Suck it up and wear whatever you're told to or quit. It's really that simple.

And the hat, and the odd shade of color, and the strange little pocket?
I think if you put it all together it's somewhere between odd and off.
If you think we've got a problem with guys wearing hats now..... I don't think folks are gonna wear this one.

This gets a solid second place next to the McPeak comment. I feel sorry for you guys, but am thankful your company jumped on the purple tie grenade before mine did.
Now I will go button up my double breasted coat and actually wear my hat that looks stupid. At least you get the option on the hat.
