Sure it's okay. Only if you want them to look like hell. Come on dude. You can't be serious. Really? You can't afford $100-200's worth of dry cleaning on first year SWA pay?

"Does anyone wear the M&H uniform pants?"

Just go to JC Pennys and get the Haggar dress pant- wash and wear. $29.99 on sale yesterday, plus ask for the $10 off coupon and out the door for less than $21.

Well, I got a call from the DEN CP yesterday late afternoon and he left a msg but I was flying from SFO - SRQ and landed too late to call back. I returned his call this morning but unfortunately, he is out of the office until Monday, LOL. Just my luck....

It's not only that... I'm an east coast guy based in Oakland my first month and if I get awarded 4 day trips that turns my trips into 6 day trips with 1 day off in between and finding a dry cleaner to get them cleaned same day while you're on the road is tough.

I have already accepted the fact I will spend the whole month in Oakland and thankfully have plenty of hotel points to take care of the nights between trips. I'm just trying to cut costs where I can until I can get further east.

I interviewed 10/15 and thought it went well. I have not heard anything from my references. Can I still keep my hopes up or have I not been selected? Waited 13 years for a Major Interview and thought I got it, now I am questioning my career choice. SW is my top choice.

Thanks for input,

5000 121PIC (all CR2)
737-300 type (FTI Denver)
2 classes into my masters degree

You may not have been considered yet for a DB. Seems to be closer to 4 weeks post interview. Don't give up hope until you get a call from a CP or a TBNT e-mail from the company.
