I hear you, Steve. And, like you, I have lived so much of my life without clothing that I find it annoying when I need to drape my body with it. Working in a farming situation means I don't have to wear clothes at all unless going to the shops or some other place that requires them. Much of the time I don't even need clothes to drive - not even when filling the tank at our local self-serve gas station. And with the heat of summer coming on, my body is so thankful for the ability to breathe!

Being unemployed at the end of my 40s I spent my 50th birthday taking professional exams to qualify for a trade (electrician) which I then took through to retirement in self-employment. This evaded the difficulty of convincing an employer that age and experience are worthwhile workplace investments. It also transpired that customers felt the opposite - he’s not some youngster who can’t be relied on, he’s got grey hair, must know what he’s doing!

Unfortunately, working mostly in people’s homes I rarely had the opportunity to work naked (though it did arise a few times) but needs must, eh?
