All my clothing - except shoes - was tossed in the garbage at the end of every work day.

Most of the mortars we used were steel - they get wet (takes 10 days or so to build a show) from rain or splashed on from being barged up the East River... they're rusty nasty POS -- now add to the mix -- spent gun powder.... little bits of paper from what's left of the lift charge... and SAND used to pack and secure the mortars....

Now add to this HOT AND HUMID heavy duty work.... which ='s SWEAT. ALL DAY sweating like a pig - and handling this stuff... We had a term for it -- it was called being CORN DOGGED..... you were covered in sand/paper bits/spent powder and rust...

Your clothes STUNK -- and were not to be tossed in any washing machine. They should have just been doused in gas and left to burn. The pay more than covered the expense of "new".

Sieg -- After jacking your thread -- did I mention that video was friggin awesome!! I sent it to all my 'works buddies in case they hadn't seen it.

I wish they'd do that for the televised shows like the Macy's Forth of July that I used to work. What a fantastic view!!!
