As you can see here.
Actually, I think the guy must have some mental issues, but his explanations almost make sense. [Roll Eyes]

Would you fire him? [Smile]

ummm.... yeah.... okay....

If you're so worried about getting your clothes dirty, then put on a jumpsuit over the top. Then take it off when you're done and put it in a bag Probably takes about as much time as taking off the clothes you're already wearing.

He's been charged multiple times in the past. You'd think he'd have gotten the message by now.

He kind of reminds me of Sam from Quincy, M.E., only older, and, you know, naked.

When you do home repair, you have to kneel or lean on a lot of surfaces that are less friendly than cloth. Splinters indeed!

You can't put a price on art and beauty, my friend. Do you think supermodels have it easy, always wearing high heels and funny hair shapes? We all have to suffer for our art.

Who cares if your clothes get dirty, that's what a washer is for.

I sort of like the guy. I wonder if he's a really good carpenter? I guess he will wear clothes from now on, though, since it ended up being such a hassle being arrested and making bail. That's sort of sad in some ways.

Maybe I just feel a little bit of identification with him since I like to go barefoot and some people seem to find that offensive. [Smile]

Harsh! The guy didn't strike me as being at all a threat. I kinda like him. There's nothing inherently wrong with going naked and the laws we have against it are some of the absolute dumbest on the books.

I mean, I can kinda understand their reaction to him. We're brought up by the media to immediately think "rapist, serial killer!" when we hear about something like this. But really we shouldn't. Hmph. I hope more liberal people hire him and allow him to work the way he likes.

This reminds me of an electrician looking for work on Craig's List. He only wanted to do work for women (the number present didn't bother him) and he didn't care what shape or size they were, he just wanted to be able to work in the nude and to be appreciated for doing so.

I laughed my guts out and emailed it to all my friends.

There is something wrong with getting pleasure out of exposing your private bits to people who didn't volunteer for the honor. The guy enjoys a mild form of sexual predation, which I'm rather glad is illegal. But you have to like his sense of style about it. [Smile]
