I think the use of the word "Dog Piling" on a forum is stupid. Turtles don't have opposable thumbs and, therefore, cannot toast the gallery with a red plastic drink glass ...

NickDG 23 #77 April 22, 2010 I'll second the fact that everyone I know who was/is in the jumpsuit business says of all the ways to work in this industry building jumpsuits is absolute hell on earth. "It makes my ass look saggy!" "This Fuchsia color appears a shade off from what I ordered!" "My booties are too hard to get on!" I'd last all of ten minutes in that biz, LOL! I remember when a custom jumpsuit meant you cut the hammer loop off the Sears overalls you bought for jumping. Extremely custom meant you dyed it some other color than white . . . !

It's the sewn on designs, accessories, and custom digitized embroidery that really adds up. But hey, if the consumer wants it, it can be built . . . for a price.
