      Job interview tomorrow. My 1st interview outside of my current employer in almost 19 years. I'd love the job but in the fortunate position of not needing it out of necessity. It's a good job I don't believe in jinxes. Why does the internet make you confess things I haven't told my closest friends? It feels a bit like a secular confessional booth.

              @Boyo and @mikebarhoot thanks for the words of encouragement. I don't generally get nervous, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit edgy tonight. I've done my research, have the right career experience, just on me not to screw it up with my social Tourettes now!

                  I hope you've been doing better recently Mike?

                    Eh not really. But work will be getting busy soon so I will be more distracted. 👍Thanks first asking.

                      Shout out to @Stuart.T @wdw and @Wlemon! Gentlemen, between the three of you and your shared trucker jacket addiction you're starting to make me feel less guilty about my out of control vest habit. Great work gentlemen and thank you  😉

                          It took every ounce of strength not to buy the new overdyed one. Christmas tapped me out, unfortunately.

                                  @Wlemon four is pretty good going, but to be honest I'm grasping at straws here. I don't care to mention the number of vests I own, partially because I don't know and otherwise because it's a lot  :D. I have four trucker jackets myself, not including the duck type II I'm trying in vain to offload. I've been in the game a while though.

                                  I totally approve of and respect your appreciation of said jacket type. They are often exquisite. Seductive as truckers are however, they don't get the wear they deserve in this part of the world. That being said I'm entertaining the idea of sizing one of the new 14oz jackets to wear like a shirt, under a tee, and with my deck jacket or IHJ-13-GRY over.

                                    @neph93 I have 4 type III and 1 type II now. Helppp meeee! You will also observe that my portable wealth (as the traveller community call it) has reduced as a result (surplus bling sold on EBay to subsidise my often irrational purchases).

                                    For me, 3 items have always represented outsider culture…bandanas, biker/engineer boots, and type III jackets. Jeans also, but less so. I just love their aesthetic. It has to be modified type III for me. No pockets = heavy shirt

                                      Gonna say NO. And thanks IH for not making shirts or vests in my size. 🙂

                                      Seriously thinking about buying the last pr of IHxVS777s21’s in my size tho as i REALLY like the fit!

                                        I think the trucker/deck jacket combo could look really awesome, @neph93. I wonder if the IH crew could model  said combo? I remember seeing a thread once where one could make such requests. You out of anyone would know if such a thread exists.

                                            It’s called “Dress the crew” and it is on the WAYWT board. I’m in traffic right now so won’t post the link. It’s chronically underused imho as it is a great idea.
