No man it doesn't make you a bad person. I'm not suggesting anyone change what they consider to be their "image", or what they are proud of/support. What I am trying to get accross is that people, farmers in particular, tend to be on the conservative side (not necessarily politically), and may view some of the behavior I mentioned as non-essential. I didn't suggest you do those things. I am suggesting that those things influence how people percieve us.

When I hire a new employee, I like to glance in their rig to see how they keep it (if I get the chance). You can tell a lot about someone by how they take care of what they own. If I see that a guy is into collecting McDonalds periphinalia and has his aluminm can collection in the back, I know I'm gonna have trouble keeping my jobs clean.

If you are going to have a bumper sticker on your rig when you pull up to a farm house, make sure it says something like, "less government means less taxes" or something
