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.


The FAA has addressed the projected controller shortage with a reduced pay
scale for new hires.
