Not looking for validation here, I was hoping to troll you into a more pithy comment. I see I failed miserably. Back to the drawing board.

White lanyard is generally a flight operations lanyard (LCA). The fact that this person is wearing non complaint pilot wings with a flight ops lanyard is an oxymoron. Clearly you don’t work for Delta if you don’t know what a white lanyard is lol

they already were able and willing to use it. The LOA didn’t make that worse.

If I don’t wear a college lanyard (possibly for a school I never attended) and slap a bunch of stickers on my bag, how else can I create a personality?

Bad language dating back to C2K.

Didn't we have 20 years of precedence and past practice to refute that?
