A Rosie perspective

Any driven female will tell you that half the battle, of being a successful  woman in a mans world , is dependent upon your stubbornness factor. Skill is important, knowledge is important, education plays a role and work experience helps… but without the self discipline, to hang tough and endure uncomfortable or less than appealing situations, all the great things you have going for you are lost.

Rosie the Riveter was a tough gal. Clad in her denim overalls wielding the man tools and doing the job that needed done.  I am sure she took her share of bayer aspirin  after her shift.

Glad to meet you

Lisa Hammel, the owner of a retail clothing shop specializes in Carhartt brand apparel and has for over 15 years.

Carhartt bib overalls insulated and unlined are the top sellers in her retail shop in northern West Virginia. In recent months her community has been flooded with “rough necks”.. which are drillers from all over the country.

While visiting with her customers, she asks “where is home for you?” Many times the answer is Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Alabama. My true appreciation to the new business flow cannot be fully put into words because just two short years ago, my business was near bankruptcy.  This busy working mom of three is very pleased to have stayed the course when the economy pointed towards bailing out.

Work or play… drive hard!

Do you like to live life to the fullest… I do. I love to set goals, make plans and then work to achieve them. I personally feel that  leisure time is a must. Planning a getaway and looking forward to it  are almost half the fun. The getaway serves as a reward or incentive to put your nose to the grindstone and work hard and when it is time to clock out and enjoy the reward, it is very well deserved.

When I am working around the yard and in the barn, Carhartt unlined bib overalls are my pick for work clothing. They are tough and comfortable. In some ways, Carhartt helps in ways that even they aren’t aware of!

Pick a hat…any hat

You know her as bib girl if you know her at all. She is confident on a good day.. she is a little tired, most days and she smiles almost always! She is the single Mom, who wears all the hats and who would get overwhelmed if she looked at  the whole picture, so she doesn’t.

She sells denim bib overalls and loves to wear them also.  She can fit a customer in a set of bibs in 3 tries or less and knows this talent will never make her rich, but she loves life and loves her kids and knows God is in control. Follow the link and if you like Carhartt brand… talk to “bib girl” she will take good care of you.

Bib overall or belt

So we all like choices and we all have at least a few pairs of denim jeans.. and belts to hold them up with or just make them look nice. Carhartt has allot of stylish belts and these are just a few of the women’s belts.

Carhartt bibs are a great choice for work if you want to skip the belt and be comfortable and not have your britches hit the ground. And the top reason to not go for the belt and britches approach is if you are a big fella and you don’t want to show off your backside.  Just say NO!

Brand awareness

Any successful company will tell you that without focus on building brand awareness you won’t survive.

Carhartt, the maker of bib overalls among 200 other items, does a great job keeping their name in people minds. They sponsor a Nascar, support FFA and PBR. With presence in those three big reaches, you can bet not too many people are not at least aware of the name Carhartt.

Before Junior wants his first set of camo insulated bibs , juniors Daddy and Mommy are having fun wearing camo onsies on him… a real live baby doll. Carhartt even makes some fun girlie camo in vintage rose. You will also notice diaper covers for the little ones also. Kid sized fun now offered by a company who outfits the serious worker and has for over 120 years.

One style does not fit all

Don’t over simplify when it  comes to choosing your bib overalls, unless of course money is no object and you will be buying several pairs. If you are more like the average worker, you like to have a pair of lined or insulated bibs and a pair of uninsulated bib overalls.

Choose the right Carhartt overalls  for your job. Have a knowledgeable sales person work with you and  don’t be afraid to ask a few questions. Will you be wearing these over your other clothing, how warm do you  want the insulation to be, do you need leg zippers, should you buy waterproof? A properly fit pair of Carhartt overalls will last longer than other brands so take the time and get a good fit.

Farming large scale

posted by Hammel @ 13:02 PM

  Wide open farms in the Midwest are cattle country. The most efficient way to control and guide the herd is on horseback. The horse and master are almost one. They are a  team and they know each others moves and skills.

Farming on a large scale like this requires much knowledge among other things such as a good horse and tack to mechanical farm equipment to the right clothing, boots, hats and overalls

It is not a cheap industry to operate in but if managed properly the return is well worth it.

Diaper overalls

I don’t care who you are.. these are adorable. I have seen even the most serious man, smile at the sight of these little diaper covers. Made to be worn as a baby overall… much cuter than a pamper ..even if Elmo is  on it!

It happens quicker than we care to think and then these little garments are keep sakes in a trunk and our little boys are wearing size 38X30 insulated overalls and are driving tractors. Maybe someday the little cover will come back out of the trunk and be worn by his son!
