    When I worked part time late afternoons at a packy store, the same guy would come in to buy a 6-pack of Budweiser still wearing his Union hard hat...the first time my fellow female co-worker and I thought nothing of it...until every time he came in he was wearing his freakin' hard hat lol!!! What made that "unusual" back then was that my husband was/is a Union construction worker who hates wearing his hard hat and says everyone on his jobs takes them off the second they're allowed to on the job site....nope this guy apparently kept his on while driving home or put in on before going into our packy...which are both weird!! lol
    There was also another guy(regular) who would always come in the store still wearing his motorcycle helmet(adorned with Harley stickers)...obviously these wannabe "tough guys" wanted us females working there to KNOW they worked in construction or rode a Harley....their tactics of trying to impress us didn't work, especially me at the time because my husband rode and was a Union construction worker who never "advertised" that he was either!!!

  • They sound a little pathetic. People who are tough really don't need to wear a badge to convince people.

    Bingo. Yeah they were pathetic....it was difficult maintaining a straight face while trying not to smirk/giggle while ringing up their purchases. lol!
