Okay, we all have nicknames for our guys in the station. What are some of the names used in you station? I'll start it off....Come along Delong, Sweet Pete, Doc, Gumby, Black Bart.
Years ago we had a group of younf men who joined and where very good friends. They called themselves the Hot Boys and got tee shirts with nicknames, Wheezy, B Cott, Jamiacan among others. I got one because they said they needed a driver and it had Big Pimp'n on it because I wear suits alot. My uncle got one with OG (Original Gangster) because we was one of the first members. I loved it because of the respect they showed. My uncle didn;t wear t-shirts much but he wore that one.
Let's see. We have Uncle Gary, Girlie Girl, GI Joe, Dan-O, the Perve, Preacher,Vinnie, newbie, Luscious. Those are just a few. Its always fun labeling the new member with a name that will stick, and stay with them their whole career.
We have alot that only ever get called by there last names or versions of, but have a Pork, Oppie, Army, Radio Shack, and a handful of others that get called from time to time but not exclusively.
