  Get yourself a van, paint RON N on the side, and park it right in front of that school.  Or the side.  Or back.  Leave the car at home.

  It has less to do with their occupation 
  Than with their mode of transportation.

    Tom,
    I used plumbers and HVAC as examples because those are 
    literally the trucks I see parked right outside the side or 
    back doors of institutions - rather than in the far corners of 
    the parking lot where I am. A cosmic coincidence, if you will. 
    Had it been flapjack polisher's trucks, I probably wouldn't 
    have even mentioned it.

    It's true that plumbers take a lot of heat on the list, but I 
    suspect that it's because the profession is such a universally 
    recognized prime example of a low skill requirement high pay 
    job. I dare say I could learn and do a plumber's job in 
    considerably less time than he could learn and do mine, but 
    that didn't have anything to do with my mention of plumbers.

    That would be Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning, 
    which has some disturbing similarities to plumbing...
