And we'd have to remove them going through security. Maybe we can get some sticky ones made!

Actually CO used to have some nice sew on embroidered ones. I always liked the way the looked but I'm glad we're not required to have them

It's so easy to lose that 'proud' lanyard and just wear an id clip.

You, sir, are going to make a great Chief Pilot. The crew force is just going to LOVE you.

You, sir, are uptight. I don't believe I advocated a position either way. And if I were a chief pilot, we'd be able to deadhead in jeans, except for you. For you, it would be uniform blazer and wheel hat!
