    I know how lovable and crazy all labs can be but I believe it is the chocolate lab that has the reputation for being the wackiest of the lab breed. My experience with them is full of memories of that intense look of "let's play" .... and they have the wackiest fun (endless energy) that a dog can have. I currently have a 7 month old black Shepard whom would closely rival that except that he is sometimes (oh heck - lots of times) smarter than I am. His name is Max. First black Shepard I've ever had. He is driving us nuts with his endless attempts to play. 20180731_154117.jpg

    Backpacks rule. I’ve got a Patagonia one. Lifetime guarantee on it. I can take it to most stores and they will repair it. It has intelligent storage and a dry area for my phone. I can keep all my important items with me, and my Tupperware containers stay hidden when I loot the buffet at the iron skillet.

    Anything is better than a fanny pack.

    Duffel bags are old like people who still wear aqua velva.

    I think we should all be able to agree that fanny packs are lame. :)

    I think it's pretty pathetic and borderline homosexual how so many men seem to care what the other men are wearing. Why do you care? This is trucking, not a friggin' beauty pageant. Are you looking for a load or a date, driver?
     
    2old Thanks this.

    You have no idea how much I appreciate your post. Your speculation of the sexuality of anyone who makes an observation which obviously threatens your idea of what is ok, or even worse might expose something that makes you uncomfortable, is the best example of ignorance one can display. You are the best so far! Hang around we'll have a ribbon ceremony in a couple of weeks. You are in the lead and will be hard to beat! Thank you! It's always best to award a clear winner.

    Yet you don't think it's ignorant to judge somebody because they're dressing comfortably for the job? Again I'm going to ask you: WHY DO YOU CARE? WHAT'S IT TO YOU? Do your own thing, let Mr. Basketball Shorts and Flip Flops do his. It doesn't concern you, nor does it affect your life in any way.l

    Btw, where can I find these "According to Hoyle" guidelines on what truck driver is supposed to look like?

    Oh that's right. There's not any, unless a particular company has a uniform or dress code.

    In other words, as somebody else once famously said: Shut up, stupid!

    How does society grow and advance? By learning from each other. If I see something that works well, I am going to emulate it. If I see someone "fail", I learn not to follow them. I get the benefit of their experience with minimal expenditure of my own resources.

    I also object to your implication that "homosexual" is something bad, shameful, or otherwise less than manly.
