I Gotta Lose The Goatee To Drive? :censored::censored::censored:?

[Lobofan5]

Yes....they want you clean shaven to offset the sloppy fitting Chinese uniforms you will be wearing in your mud encrusted, dirt covered package car.

OMG...thats a good one!!!


Still laughing.

 

[brownrodster]

Do I sense sarcasm?

Unfortunately in my case that is truth. All my uniform order requests have been unfulfilled and my uniform is made up of borrowed, faded, torn, stained, broken zippered pieces. I only wash my clothes once per week so I often end up wearing the same unwashed uniform parts all week depending on the weather. My vest has a broken zipper, a huge stain and the ups logo has fallen off. My pants have a paint stain on them. Oh yeah, and I have no shorts.

Dude - that sucks. Serious question (I really don't know the answer to this) There really is no choice of where to get uniforms?

nope.

 

[bellesotico]

nope.

That is awful!

We have an account # for Cintas. Because I'm Air..for my summer browns I get 3 prs of shorts..3 short slv jacks or tails. Anything beyond that we have to pay for. They had a freeze on uniform requests, but it lifted a few weeks ago. Alot of the ft drivers here that werent able to get new uniforms (they had to order new browns for the seasonal drivers) just wear ups polo shirts and khaki shorts.

 

[trplnkl]

I said "nope" because the only way we can get new uniforms is to go through our sups and those are ordered from Twinhills. It may well be different in other parts of the world.

 

[bellesotico]

Yeah...I figured. Sorry..was sympathizing. My bad..

 

[Hedley_Lamarr]

Had this goatee for 20 years.... I know, not a big deal, but it really threw me. I can keep the mustache, but I have to lose the goatee by tomorrow. (Note, it is very tasteful, 1/8 inch long.

Bummer - why does that bother me?

I grew a goatee once, my wife told me that it made me look gay, so I shaved it....

My wife has only ever known me with a goatee. She has been looking at me funny for the last couple days without it. ALTHOUGH, the UPS shirt seems to have more than made up for it......something about "men in Uniform..."

LOL - Maybe it's the color?

 

[Hedley_Lamarr]

Had a beard up until I hired in. Came back when I retired. Now it's a different color. Weird!!

That's like that Seinfeld episode...

Tell her your "Trying" to look Metro sexual!

 

[But Benefits Are Great!]

Metro Sexual = Gay, but won't commit

 

[upsgrunt]

Tell her your "Trying" to look Metro sexual!

Do you have one of your famous visual aides for that?

 

[upsgrunt]

Metro Sexual = Gay, but won't commit

How about a Tri-sexual?


You're willing to try anything once

 

[springrubber]

Just tattoo the goatee on your face because apparently here in SoCal exposed tattoos are ok. They comment on my sideburns (a tad long,nothing crazy) but never say jack didley squat to the cover drivers with sleeved arms. Chicken ! So I now bring up this observation to them every time they bring it up. Of course this is done in a joking atmosphere and I eventually trim the chops, only to let them grow again so that the cycle repeats itself over and over for the last ten years

 

[PAS'd out]

I guess you are arrogant, because you were wrong.
