...If every time you go to take off your ballcap, you try and unclip your hood first, still thinkin you are wearing a hard hat
...You can smoke a cigarette under your hood, and still weld a consistent bead (my supervisor)
...you start gagging on your dip b/c you dont want to stop welding to spit
...you get dirty looks at the bar when you and your buddies are talkin about your rods
...you keep the proper angle on your ketchup bottle to run a perfect bead on your hotdog (caught myself doing this the other day, dad thought i was nuts)
YMBAW if... youve ever run through the shop, screaming like a lil girl cause ya caught your hair on fire..... or been handed print and asked to "just make it work, please"

I can burn a cigarette under my hood. I just haven't figured out how to burn one through the resperator that keeps you from getting lung cancer from the weld fumes. Ohh-- I get it, Y.M.B.A.W. if, see above comment.
Hockeyguynick- ...you keep the proper angle on your ketchup bottle to run a perfect bead on your hotdog (caught myself doing this the other day, dad thought i was nuts)

scott hightower- You know all the steps to the "Spatter in the Workboot Dance."
I gotta get that on camera one day.
Coburn Performance- You don't worry what your house insurance covers, but you check to see if they cover the value of the contents of your garage.

Here's a few more cuz there so fun!
You might be a welder if 25 amps doesn't scare you.
You might be a welder if you have to stop yourself from showing off "all" your burns when someone asks do you get burned a lot.
You know what I mean.
You Might be a weldor if: You stir your coffee with 3/32 Pure tung since the 1/2 dozen boxes you ordered last time you ordered is about useless in your shop because you just got a new inverter for TIG. It's a good thing green bands are tastleless, huh?
