I've seen a few new hires with slick ties. Not sure if you played hooky during the alpa brief in indoc, but your safer walking into the chief pilot's office with a clown suit than stepping into the cockpit with a slick tie.
If you have a pin, my beer fund is plentiful.

I don't understand it, but if you don't want to wear a half wing atleast talk to your rep about it and get a full wing.

Degrading? It's called tradition. Sounds like a self inflated ego to me.
If they were at another alpa carrier, they should already have full wings and are able to wear it, even on probation.
The half wing signifies vulnerability (no grievance available). To any pilot off probation that should signal to do anything possible to protect them.
