I don’t mind the shirt/blazer wings as much (the enameled globe looks goofy) but the hat brass looks ridiculous.

Can we collectively refuse to wear the new uniform until a new contract is completed?

I hardly care, a little less purple would be nice though.

it’s allegedly rhapsody blue. Guess we will see.

And the wings look cheap IMHO. The company also says the color is platinum. To the average Joe they’re silver.....second place comes to mind.

Oh well, one more uniform version in the closet.

what I care about the wings is simple. They are made in the USA.

Rumor is that between October and April, hats will be required on lav breaks.

To me, the hardware says “regional affiliate.”

The tie still looks purple. Not sure what differentiates “premium purple” from “basic purple” or “economy purple-plus.”

Thin silver stripes on the Blazer? Almost unnoticeable...meaning, we will be mistaken for cops...or maybe a baggage-handler (cue “Living the Dream!” part 1).
