Only if you're into black.

Personally, when I make the trek over (or under) the river into NYC I wear
clothes that really stand out in NYC, just to make a statement.

I wear gray.

I don't get it. While some of them are amusing, many seem quite normal.
What's wrong with that tux, for example? A little flashy for me, but...

And, okay, so I don't wear white shoes. Other people do.

B,

I was kidding.


These jokes from a country where "French Fries" were actually renamed
"Freedom Fries" in government establishments just because France
opposed a war that has turned out to be wrong and a desaster for
exactly the reasons France and other countries cited at its start,
well, these jokes are not really funny, to me. But I'm just one of
those oversensitive Old Europeans g.

Is that why France considers itself the fashion hub of the world?

No, it considers itself that because it's true, at least in many
domains. Whether or not fashion is used to hide something is
independent of fashion itself.

The French do tend to put a great deal of faith in appearances, and
very little in substance, however. Maybe the two things are
correlated.

My belief that most federal employees are underworked and overpaid is

Does that apply to air traffic control?

Because in a private company, without all the ridiculous "work rules"
that Federal employees can currently hide behind, insubordinate
employees can be effectively weeded out.

In a private company with a monopoly, prices can be raised and quality
can be lowered with impunity. Never privatize a monopoly.

I wish it were otherwise, because I truly do believe that ATC should be
a governmental responsibility.

I agree. Privatization would be a disaster. At least the government
has public interest in mind, instead of profit.

Insubordination is refusing to obey orders. No one ever said you can't
make fun of your CEO. Ours has really bad hair, and we all know it and
have made comments. It doesn't mean we deserve to be fired.

If there is a corporate policy against such comments you could be
terminated. It also falls under harassment which is certainly a hot
button of recent years.

Harassment may be against company policy (at least for the lower echelons)
but it certainly isn't illegal/a-legal-issue (which is the topic...isn't
it?)

It certainly is illegal. There have been a number of landmark cases with
significant judgements.
