Do airport employees often wear t shirt and shorts when working on the tarmac in the rain? I know it’s Florida but is that really the uniform? Dude that runs to help is in full poncho mode.

electrocution is technically only correct if he died from it wharrgarbl

There are many things I’d call Kinja, “popular” is not one of them.

If that’s what he wants to wear it’s probably fine. It’s not like the poncho would’ve saved him or anything.

Yeah, I have no problems getting Kinja to do images. Embedding non-YouTube video though, is a different story

and yet, here I am every damned day using it!

Fair point. I’m pretty sure he felt like he was dying though.

I’m just curious because he’s dressed like a civilian

Yep. The fact that he effectively *was* 99% shocked to death made a good opportunity to joke about how silly that quibble can be... but also ongoing media writer ignorance.

Usually those out of the public eye have relaxed dress codes. Also working on ramp is Hot , Wet and Dirty job. Gotta be comfortable as much as you can.
Hot, wet and dirty? Is this a airport or a p0rno?
