That is one plumber’s truck I’d notice! I say that because 25 years ago GM was designing a new full size van. They needed to get test miles on the truck so they were painted white with a non-existent plumbing company logo on the side. They were tested on the public roads around Phoenix AZ. No camo to hide the truck in any way, just a white plumber’s van. No one noticed, and no pictures appeared in any car magazine. ---

Years ago I had a good friend who owned a plumbing supply house in Brooklyn who had t shirts made up for all his workers that said “ your sh\*t puts food on our table”. ---

My wife is in a Bunko group. One of the members loves it when she hears that people flush anything but TP down the toilet. Her husband is a plumber and flushing baby wipes, facial tissue, etc. down the toilet clogs it. The more you flush, the better the car she gets. ---

Kinda like what KISS, Ozzy and others did back in the day, it’s all about getting your attention, like this company and their Pink concrete trucks… > **[pink truck](https://alconcrete.org/pink-truck/)** > > Visit the post for more. ---

The medical clinic I use has some sort of device in the commodes that prevents flushing of wipes or feminine hygiene products. Local TV station did a report on “Brown Friday” vs “Black Friday”, lots of plumber call for people pouring the wrong stuff down their sinks after Thanksgiving.
