What can Brown do for you?

**auld argonian** · 15th March 06, 10:12 AM

There was a bit on the Today show this morning about "White Collar Women With Blue Collar Men"....oh, why didn't Maury Povich beat them to this one?

Anyway, they had this UPS driver on opining as to why white collar women dig blue collar men...he stated that he thought it was their down-to-earthiness and their generally great physical condition and then they panned down to reveal his uniform...the Brown UPS Shorts...and he said that the shorts didn't hurt either.

And as I sat there with my morning coffee and peanut butter and bannana sandwich, I was heard to say, "...yeah...but if it was a KILT, you would REALLY make out!"

How bout it UPS? A big order for UPS brown canvas kilts?

The UPS driver who delivers to the bookstore every day is one of the people who gives me the most greif about wearing kilts. If UPS tried to do that, I think he'd quit.

None of the other UPS drivers that've come to the bookstore seem to mind, though.

A guy in brown polyester has no place to give anyone any guff. Tell him to show up at the next Highland Games and hand that attitude out.

It occurred to me that there are no UPS kilts because no self-respecting kiltmaker would handle bown polyester. I don't know...I hear that brown polyester drives the wimmens wild....

I have a hard time envisoning a guy wearing a brown polyester kilt with a brown polyester shirt that says "UPS" on the breast pocket. Wouldn't know if it was a request or an order

As a former FedEx driver, I can tell you that it's not the color

...must be the polyester.

Now we all know that the reason the women like the delivery drivers isn't the uniforms. Those are just a symbol of what they really like: Men who bring them things.

I am with Iolaus on that one. WAs a courier for Fed Ex for a few years a long while back. the number of receptionists & secretaries that woud suddenly light up when I showed up with thier packages was astounding...

Now if i had only done it kilted i might be a very different man today....

Somewhere in the heart of Silicon Valley, Panache reads and snorts his coffee up his nose... We now continue back to the thread at hand...

Oh no, how many folks here worked for the man in MEM?
I used to deliver UPS office and walk thru the call center and drop off the Fedex promo items and chat up the women there. The UPS managers did not seems real keen on that.
