Today's newspaper "Ask Amy" column....

Hey, I work on a computer most of the day and I guarantee I work just as honestly as you do. I put in OT every week. Have time to get greasy in the garage. Weld on something. Build or destroy a building. Spend some time on my first tractor. Raise my baby and love my wife. Occasionally I even clean under my nails.

I guess we all can't be perfect like you.

Don't get too worked up about it. If you read between the lines he was really just bragging that he has a "live in GF". Maybe he doesn't realize how easy those can be to come by.

I'm not. :dance1: Just giving a little ****. Just because people aren't carpenters doesn't mean they do not work hard. I could have just as easily gone into our trade on the installation side, but with my knowledge I was better utilized on the design end making the systems those guys "work hard" to install.

Yeah, I used to think I did "honest hard work" too when I sat my butt down for about 10 hours a day in front of a PC, designing phone,data, paging and cabling systems for our customers. But I guess I was wrong. I sell insurance now, I am not sure if that is honest work or not.!

I spent eight years as a traveling salesman in SoCal; For 3 1/2 years I sold ladies girdles, bras and corsets, manufactured under the Sarong label. We had 26 salesmen in the country, all men.

If a candidate showed up for an interview and did not have clean, trimmed nails - it was almost a non-starter.

Our buyers were all very feminine ladies. As much as they may have fallen for a sales pitch, or liked the product you were presenting, my management felt unkempt nails lose sales. To this day, almost 40 years later, I carry nail clippers in my vehicles.

Watch those long nose hairs, too, gents. If you don't care for cutting them, at least have them braided.

I WAS BRAGGING, YOU SAY????? IN WHAT WORDS WAS I BRAGGING???? How else am I supposed to describe her? Come on....tell me a more appropriate term to use....if you actually know of one. And yes, I am going to brag that I HAVE had a number of live in GF's over the years. NOW, THAT IS BRAGGING....but it's TRUE. :laughing:

Maybe yes, maybe no... who am I to say?

But I believe that your sins are forgiven when you take time to teach Pilgrims proper gun handling.
