We're going to have to part company here, then. I can understand resistance
to formal or even professional attire, but that in no way negates an
employer's privilege of setting the dress code - even after the fact, as it
were. It also does not infringe on the employee's ability to simply change
employers if they do not like the new rules. I've certainly done it.

Personally, I'm more concerned with a controller's diction than his physical
appearance, but I also don't see the big deal about Dockers and golf shirts.
I think there are far bigger fish for the union to fry - like a shortage of
controllers.
