New doctors are generally as poorly paid as first year NK FOs, but the ones I know mostly wear scrubs from the surgery suite locker room.
And while lawyers from the top tier law schools do quite OK, those from third tier schools don’t do real great either and can’t even wear scrubs to court:

It’s really not that hard. If they don’t have the piece available, you ask your boss what his plan is. If he says “wear Costco” then wear Costco, they write the manuals.
But if I were probationary, I would like to get my boss’ views before I color outside the lines. No matter how much forum folk say to do it.

Sounds like an awesome question for your chief pilot. They write the manuals, theymake the rules. If someone can’t get a new jacket within 3 months, sounds like it’s an easy email to Rodosta and ask what his office wants pilots to do. Seems if I were a probationary pilot I would much rather get the answer from my boss vs going Costco because the interwebs said so.

no….new hire FO’s leaving in droves. No shows in classes now. They don’t care as long as you show up to work looking somewhat like a pilot. Let them know how you feel during your exit interview in your way out to a legacy.

Yeah, that’s how I’ve always seen it too. Comical to think back ordered jacket compliance enforcement is on anyone’s to do list.

The question was “what’s the poor new FO supposed to do if they can’t get a jacket”. I said, “ask the CP and see what his plan is since he writes these manuals and knows there are no jacket”.
