I haven’t seen one of those bumper stickers in a while. I never understood who considered oilfield hands “trash”. They always made pretty good money compared to most other working men, and they certainly earned their pay.

Back in the late 50’s and 60’s some people looked down their noses at those folks who moved from one oil field to another.

Actually being dubbed “Oil Field Trash” was sort of a badge of honor.

Sort of like when I was a Freshman and a self respecting cowboy in college and had “GDI” (Gawd Dang Independent)plastered on my textbooks letting the world know that this cat wasn't a sand dipping, ice cream britches wearing Frat Rat.
