How do people treat you knowing you are a "scrapper?"

An experience at the scrap yard reminded me of this thread:

I took a load up and was waiting in the office for my check. Another guy waiting started talking about the "stickers" on my truck. "What stickers?" Come to find out, he meant the lettering on the doors - "Mick's Metal and Battery Recycling", town & phone number. He said "You've got some big (nerve) putting it out there what you do. People just give me a crap about it". (not EXACTLY what he said, but you get the idea.) I told him that he must deal with the wrong people and that I only deal with people who call ME, so why would they be giving me grief?



After he left, the yard manager told me that wasn't the real reason people gave him crap about it.
