It should be the right of an employer to enforce a dress code for employees;
it is the responsibility of an employer not to be stupid or oppressive about
it.

This action of the FAA smacks of a power demonstration rather than a routine
work rule change. Hard to see how it can help the already toxic
labor-managemrnt atmosphere in ATC.
