Puddle Hopper dress code

JellyFox:
Do people who drive puddle hoppers, all have a universal dress code? Must of counted about 30 over the course of the day all wearing baseball caps and hi vis vests. Just wondering that’s all.

From what I’ve seen and encountered over the years, truckers that wear baseball caps = drive like knobs, act like knobs, and in fact are just simply knobs.

Just an observation. As you were, etc.

Suzzies, thong, stockings and a Basque for me.
Oh, and don’t forget the red slingbacks!
:open_mouth:

Euro:
what is a puddle hopper?

A one legged Puddle Jumper

I dont know what a “Puddle Hopper” is. Is it some form of insult?

all Puddleists dress alike cos there all about the same age

anything thats not a proper truck

Wouldn’t know what they wear. I don’t look at inferior vehicles…

I think you mean " Must have counted…"

Or is this apparently random misuse of words and/or punctuation a Class One thing? Just asking, like…

You again, stop pulling people up about there grammar, what the duck has it got to do with you

Their. Not there. Just saying like!! Oh yeah, also end a questioning sentence with a question mark.

Happysack thank you for your helpful advice however you seem to be confusing me with Mr high and mighty, who seems to think class one drivers are thick by his so called question, like has been mentioned before a lot of us use our phones and do not notice the grammar, I don’t care how people spell or punctuate some can some can’t, who cares. Oh hang on I know Mr perfect Raymondo who seems to think he is god’s gift to Grammar and seems to pull a lot of people up about it, to me it is a form of bullying, and as for me am I thick well maybe if I cannot write very well or I am crap at maths well so be it, I seem to be quite good a my job though having been fully employed as a driver since I was 17 so that is 31 years at least I have a bit of respect for other people . I think Raymondo is a vile little man who has high aspirations to be a class one driver, if he went to some of the places I go to with a drag he would probably break down in tears. Show a bit of decency and stop picking on peoples grammar.

I will now let you pull mine to bits.

your firm supply your pants? :open_mouth: :open_mouth:

Is this really that strange?

I have had shirt, pants, boots and gloves from every place I have worked.

Do you mean trousers?

DAF95XF:
If we’re going to go on about what we wear to work - blue cargo trousers and a blue shirt :wink:

Snap…hope we don’t ever accidentally meet each other at the same venue, otherwise the shame of it all, being seen in the same clothes! :wink:

On the weekends I wear black cargo trousers and a black shirt. I like to change out of my weekday work clothes so there is a distinct change :laughing:

Oh and I have a choice of black or brown steel top cap boots, depending on how I feel on the day and what I am likely to tread in and have to hide on the boot! :open_mouth:

Thanks for showing an interest in what we all wear!

C

I’m 42, never worn a baseball cap and never will.

Polo shirt and click trousers are company issue.

Hi-viz. only worn on the yard when I get back to work. Usually stuff it behind the passenger seat or it reflects into my eyes (God knows how anyone drives wearing one)

Boots something like Karrimor or Dunlop from Sports Direct. However, since we’ve switched from MANs to DAFs, and the place is awash with AdBlu, the soles aren’t lasting, so I may have to rethink that one.

Yes because this is England and we spell the English way :wink:
Pants is a form of underwear, in England we wear trousers…
It’s also lift and not elevator, petrol not gas etc…
I can’t stand americanisms…

Actually… this is the internet.

And most of us are in England, fair enough if you’re actually in America…

Using the word “pants” isn’t remotely an Americanism.

It’s just a colloquialism.

Pants (in the North West, for example) for some has always meant trousers.

Lots of ‘Americanisms’ are actually old bits of English which we’ve abandoned but they kept using. Obviously, in some very backward parts of England, they may still be in use… :wink:
