In some countries every job comes with a uniform!!!
Reminds me of the time, as a newly minted 2nd Lt in the USAF, my then-girlfriend was returning from holiday and I went to the airport in uniform to pick her up (thought she'd like that...which she did). Turns out the plane was delayed and a bunch of us were standing next to the gate to welcome relatives (which you could do in those days) when one of the other welcomers turns to me and casually asks why the flight was delayed. I told her I didn't know (not knowing any more than she did). She got icy and a bit haughty and said accusingly "Well, you work for the airline, don't you?!", at which point her husband started laughing, took her by the shoulder and led her away, winking at me, telling her "No, dear, he's in the Air Force." I thought it was funny watching her turn all kinds of shades of red.
