My vote is for chain mail tank tops, leather chauffeur hats and banana hammocks. . . company paid for, of course. The mustache-goatee optional. .

And where's the damn silk scarf? If anyone is NOT showing up on their last day dressed like Charles Lindbergh, they should be forced to fly for 10 more years as a E-135 FO.

That theory is dead, the airlines pushed tradition and respect out years ago, especially in regards to its frontline employee's. I don't care what garb you guys wear, as long as you can handle the plane. Glad I fly 91 and 135, you 121 guys can just be too uptight.

Take a walk around the regional gates at any major airport for validation of this statement.

They still do. Check your "Smoke and Fume Elimination" memory items.

Ahem... Don't bunch the supplemental world in with the toolbags at the majors.

I have a strong feeling that the OP was that kid at school no one liked.

I think it was one of two things...His 6th grade Science teacher didn't like him or liked him TOO much.
