With AA it's the other way, I've started talking to a couple of their pursers thinking they were AA pilots due to their stripes.

I was dressed in a traditional pilot uni with four stripes and a hat and I still got asked if I was a pilot or flight attendant. You can't fix stupid.

Get over it, it's been 10 years now. They recognize the uniform.

I like the grey and no tie uniform, it's beats looking like a skycap.

Skycap makes more than a new FO here. The phrase "dress the part" no longer applies here at Alaskasworld. Oh but don't worry, wearing your hat will command a huge pay raise.

I put my money on continuing to wear a gray shirt after this thing is patched together.

Hats are important because they give disgruntled pilots something to "not wear" as a protest.
Just try that with pants.
