You only have two uniform shirts?

I like the fact that all workgroups (Pilots, FAs, and gate agents) share the same exact outerwear options now. They all have the same exact “tech” jacket and sweater options, so wearing the hat will be the only way to differentiate pilots from FAs and gate agents now. Dumb.

The rest of us could care less and they pay very well to wear the hat.
What were you doing up there? Your hair is all messed up.

That’s why there’s so many uniforms hanging in the crew room! I thought it was all commuters more savvy than me traveling in civies .

I’m critical of your post because you take issue with a fellow union member for exercising the provisions of the CBA.

Every aspect of our contract is the result of a collective give, the notion that we shouldn’t use provisions within the agreement are laughable.
