Here its a Govt workplace health and safety requirement to have high viz clothing on when working on a lot of sites, other times its a customer requirement.

The big contractors will issue their staff custom silk screened vests with the company name on the back, the smaller ones tell the staff to go to the discount tool places and buy the $15 ones on sale.

I keep a few of the sale ones in the trunk of my car in case i have to change a flat tire or other road issues.

I came across a shirt from our "mutual former employer"


Does this Company's name begin with "R"???

If Yes, did either of you work on any of the Bank Integration Projects; between 1995 to 2000?
(FIB - WFB, ASB / HSA / GWB - WAMU)

One of the Subs for KCI was that "R" Company.

No Scott, it began with an L and was located near the 57 freeway and Orangewood Ave.
Do you remember "Steve" or "Craig", from about 2001 or '02 ?
They're out of business now.

to hell with that, you're not overthinking this, I would never give one my company shirts out or donate them, or burn them for that matter.

Call me crazy but I have a huge box with all company material folded nice and neat no matter what the condition. When I die they'll just have to dig a bigger hole is all.

That and I give all the old shirts to the trenching division =p
