Why do tradies wear their reflective safety wear as casual wear?

brb was in wal mart and saw at least 3-4+ dudes wearing their dirty velcro safety vests (they werent walmart workers). The jackets are kind of reasonable cuz they get them for free and its protection but why wear the vest when your out and about? its so easy to take off JUST LOL

They have to let everyone know they work long days of hard manual labor for $55k/yr. in order to keep the ice in some CEO's drink cold.

the funniest is when they wear it to a bar lol.

my flexibility sucks ass. pulling a vest, shirt, or sweater off is a pain in the ass. wiping my ass is becoming troublesome too. srs.

i also feel like you get away doing stupid chit if you have dirty hi-vis clothing on. for e.g. parking like an *******, littering, spitting, etc.

Where is "here"? What profession? And are you talking specifically about Commiefornia, where cost of living is outrageous and half of your LGBTQ land burns on the regular?
