Truck Driver Clothes 4463Yeah - unlike the pair of chuckleheads I saw yesterday. I don't know if this was a typical Monday WRT truck traffic, or if the Truckers were taking advantage of all the scales being closed...
Guessing you are serious, and I doubt it,
May large company drivers, UPS, Schneider, JBH, are issued cotton uniforms from Wear-Guard or similar, and they are just Dockers in disguise, and the cotton shirts are like U.S. Navy 'working blues'.
Me, personally, my company did not require a uniform, so I wore jeans of any brand, and fancy colorful T-shirts from Liquid Blue at about $18 each. A light wind breaker jacket, but Walls coveralls in winter. And the boots, Dingo's, because many drop lots were either muddy, deep with rain water, or full of unplowed snow. While driving, I was generally barefoot, which I think is not allowed. The barefoot is a life choice however, and I only wear footwear when required in public places.
Now, as for your stereotypical 'Dumb butted trucker', you better do some research on that. I am a retired Electronics Technician Navy Chief, have designed, built, and marketed medical measurement equipment, and just simply love to drive. I make more money driving as a blue collar worker, than I ever did at a white collar desk job, and I am still one of the old school guys who helps motorists in trouble, and reports unsafe driving habits of other 18 wheelers. Seeing a chuckle brain driving 80,000 pounds only three feet off the back bumper of another motorist peees me off as much as it does you. One buttwipe trucker leaves a tarnished image that hurts a hundred good truckers. And I find it very sad that with the new batch of East Indian, and Russian truckers out there, good truckers are becoming much more rare. As for most of the indians, and russians, I would not let them drive my tonka trucks in a sand box, and sure as hell would never put them out on America's highways. And don't say it's sour grapes, or I hate immigrants, I have dual citizenship, as my mother is Icelandic, and my father (now pbutted) was Tuscaroran native american.
Best wishes for a serious follow-up. Bless.
