I’m not saying that things should be that way. Just that they are that way. If you choose to wear a pink tutu with a purple Mohawk because it makes you happy that’s fine. Just know that you will be closing certain doors.
that is reality.Feedman, cke, Geronimo17 and 2 others Thank this. -
Just sure. -
You could wear a nice expensive 3 piece suit, but once you are seen stepping out of a semi truck……..not all but many peoples opinion would be the same. People just don’t like us. Modern society in general looks down on the blue collar working class.

I do understand where you're coming from but my initial post was just because I'm tired of the people that think if you're not wearing boots and jeans like the old timers did them you're not a truck driver. It's BS. I also don't wear a suit when it's time to "dress up" regardless what the occasion is.
There's guys here at Landstar that always wear button up shirt and ties when they are at a customer location. They feel it's a better look and they claim that's why they get the work they have. Maybe so, maybe not. -
But anyhow we’ve exhausted this topic. My opinion hasn’t changed and neither has anyone else’s.cke, blairandgretchen, Ruthless and 1 other person Thank this. -
How many brokers or shippers have really asked what clothes you're going to wear or how long your hair is, aside from PPE or clean shaven face to wear a respirator? I've never had a complaint about my long hair or beard. I get a fair amount of compliments, though. Maybe they talk bad about me when I drive off, but they always seem happy to see me when I come back. Maybe they think I'm a professional because I don't have any tattoos.
cke, blairandgretchen, RedForeman and 6 others Thank this. -
Next time I get on a plane and the pilot comes in in sweats, flip flops and t shirt loaded with food stains I’ll have a hard time remembering the way he is dressed doesn’t matter as I exit the plane
