Employees representing a company should be politically neutral when representing a company and/or on duty. And companies, especially large publicly traded ones, should strive to be politically netural too, at least in the public eye. That is almost always the best business decision. Some times companies can venture into public politics and it works out for them... but usually it doesn't.

Go to work.
Fly by the book.
Wear the g-d uniform; it makes you invisible.
This is the easiest, highest comp paid-by-the-hour job on the planet. You're the envy of pilots globally and in the top 5% of salary earners.
But ya gotta have "flair". (Military. Sportsball. Special causes. "Oh no, not a HAT!!!")
Sigh.
Good luck.

Lol right! I don't understand the fascination with flair and “individualism,” at work. I have a hard enough time remembering to move my ALPA pin. Same with lanyards, plenty of union/company lanyards that work just fine. Go to work, collect a fat paycheck, go home…express your individualism on your own time.

I feel like this goes against Freedom of Speech. I know Jamaican pilots usually wear a pin from their country. They would need to ban all pins vs just other country flags for it to not be violating freedom of speech. All because an employee doesn’t know how to tweet…
Being an international air line, I would expect Delta to be more accommodating to other nationalities. I’m glad we have a union over crap like this but the FA’s don’t.
