This is very funny!! But, could have a ring of truth to it to some old-time employees with a VERY old mindset! First let me say that I AM white! Not old, but aging gently!!
Two things come to mind:
1) With so many high powered jobs today that people do from the comfort of their own homes - and don't even have to go into the office, not to mention business owners, like myself, this idea to have to "look the part of a 1st class passenger" is just nuts!
2) The look, feel and amenities of F have been downgraded sooooo much over the years that the name "1st class" hardly even fits the quality any more. I hear that some airlines actually still do provide first class service with a "true" first class feel. It's a very outdated term!!
