    Talked to a really cool gal at school tonight...she's way younger than me, but we dig alot of the same bands, and we got to talking about stuff in general.

    She's got some really cool ink, and I just about laughed out of utter disgust when she told me that she applied for a job at a local Harley Davidson dealer...and they told her that she'd have to keep her tats covered and take out all piercings. (She only has earings and a little tiny nose stud thingy...and her tats aren't x-rated or like on her FOREHEAD or anything!).

    It just killed me that a HARLEY dealer would require her to cover up so as not to offend any of the yuppie weekend "bikers" who shop there...and might be intimidated by a chick with a little ink!

    I know we've covered tats in the workplace before, but what in da Hell is da world comin' to...when ya can't even sport a few tastefull tats at a Harley shop (unless you're a GUY working there!)!?!?

    Sad! [​IMG]

    If you look at H-D's ads from magazines, 60's HOTROD and R & C ran their ads, you will see smiling young lad with a clean face and wellgroomed short hair and ivy-league clothes with a "virginal" looking young lady on the back wearing a skirt and Tuesday Weld sweater and pearls. Thye have always tried to portray that "All American" BMOC almostClark Kent kind of customer image and probabaly still want that conservative middle of the road "wholesome" appeal to be presented to their customers. Probably to the extent of going overboard with it since there are so many "dirtbags" influencing H-D s image in the news and on the street.
    Lets face it, only a few very successful meth dealers can afford to actually BUY a new Harley, but just about any Lawyer or Dentist can.

    the dealers are no longer bike shops, they are boutiques. More revenue is derived by selling sundry items with the logo than all their bikes combined

    I guess I'm a little old fashioned myself. I believe a woman's place is in the kitchen...and as soon as she gets home from work she should go directly there!

    Yep ,I am just an old redneck I guess, I wouldn't have any body work for me with a visible tatoo or***** hanging out of holes in their face. If your self worth is that low I sure don't want you representing me.
    Anyway thats my opinion!

    Don't want to put fear into the Dentists who come in to pick up a new $30.00 Doo Rag, $45.00 coffee cup, $90.00 wall clock, and matching springer bike with saddlebags. [​IMG]
    Gotta look out for your customers.

    one thing I like about having sleeves is that their good at weeding people out. IF people care all that much about my tattoos, I don't wanna talk to em anyways. What does***** is that I just started a new job and I'm having to wear long sleeves (which I'm cool with) it's just hot as BALLS...

    Olde English folk wisdom for her: "What's the difference between a Harley and a Hoover? On a Hoover, the dirtbag is on the inside..."
     
  22. Wife jokes? Yes! I have been dying to tell these....keed in mind they are jokes, not how I feel. No animals were hurt by telling these jokes....

    What do women and floor tile have in common?
    If you lay them right the 1st time, you can walk all over them for years....

    Why do brides wear white? To match the stove, and the sink and the dishwasher......

    What have you done wrong when your wife comes out of the kitchen yelling at you?
    Made her chain toooo long.

    What do you tell your wife when she has 2 black eyes? Nothing, you already told her twice.

    THANK YOU! I will be here all week, be sure to tip your waitresses and try the shrimp coctail, its fantastic. Thank you , we'll be right back!
     
  23. Oh, yea, covering up tattoos*****s also. I have to wear long sleves every damn day. [​IMG]

    On a friend's advice (a HD guy) I went to my local HD store in Torrance (Lomita?) for some switches for my cafe bike. The guy behind the counter had lots of tats & lots of piercings.

    However, he knew what he was doings, was helpful & polite. As a side note, they could order all the stuff from the J&P and Drag Specialties catalogs, w/o having to pay for shipping. They have an OK selection of switches and things.

    And get this - you have to walk past *bikes* to get to the parts counter or the jewelry!

    thats the price you pay for trying to be different


    i never needed tatts or piercings.. piercings looked too painful in a fight. tatts? i havent created any art i wanted on me, if i did get tatted up with the politics of my youth, id look like an even bigger****hole. plus its easier for one time to identify you. ..could be a good and a bad thing ... like females [​IMG]

    Harley would rather have the yuppies riding thier bikes. It's always been like that.

    I like my women chained to the bed ,with enough slack to reach the kitchen.
     
  28. I understand tatts... I understand most peircings... but the stretched ear thing gives me the willies! So, is THAT why people so it... for the SHOCK value?

    I heard on the radio this morning, on the way to work, that people in the Netherlands are getting jewelry implanted in their freakin' eye balls!!!!

    Jimminy Chistmas... what's next???

    DRJ - I resemble that remark [​IMG]

    I'd gladly trade you paychecks from the last 10 years....student loans, SBA loans at a variable rate that went up to 13%, employees that want to be paid even if they didn't work. patients that screw you out of a paycheck, insurance companies that set fees and make you wait 60+ days to get a paycheck.....shall I go on? - I ain't got no harley....
