Packing Folders

Love 'em! Although, I just have 1 packing folder (18) but it keeps 2 pair of pants & 3 shirts wrinkle free. I keep my jacket folded in the original plastic. Great buy IMO.

Did you buy it here in town or on line?

So you're saying it was well worth the $25. I may have to get one.

Yes, I like the fact that it's keeps my gear seperate from all the other things in my suitcase. On top of that, it holds everything wrinkle-free & in place to & from games.

Is the 18 big enough to include the jacket too?

I got the 18 based on it fitting into my suitcase. I carry the small overnight type. I pack my jacket in it's original plastic, but depending on how many shirts/pants you carry, I'm positive it would fit nicely into packing folder.

Since the subject came up again, thought I'd put it back in the proper thread.
I have games today, 20 minutes from my home. I have nothing else to do today. Why would I possibly want to get dressed here, drive to the school, and change again when I get there?

Can't speak for you, but I would always change at the school because:

1. I dont want to get my gear dirty/wrinkled on the way.

2. I don't wear my indoor shoes outdoors.

3. Looks really professional.

But that's just me...

Is there another game before or after?

In our area:

1) Schools have places for us to change, and most importantly

2) We are specifically told by our Assignor NOT to arrive for games dressed in uniform (again, I understand it is regional based on situation, weather, etc).

So, IMO, in my area, if I want to stay in the good graces of my Assignor and hopefully progress, one of my ciriteria is probably - do I do what I'm told/asked - it's that simple to me.

To take it one step further - if I should: not do what I am told/asked, not get to games early, not attend meetings, not attend training when I can, not wear my uniform properly (jacket/patches), etc., then it says something about me (the person and the ref) and I should accept what is given/what I get.

In the Army, we called it "the 100% Soldier concept." You are not measured on one criteria - but many together. And, it all says something about you. JMO

4. If I want to watch a previous or following game, I'd rather not do it in uniform.

5. If I want to stop for a G2, for gas, for fast food, or to take a piss, I'd rather not be wearing stripes.
