mullet outfit

Term often used by welders, pipe fitters, millwrights, boilermakers and other construction hands to describe a contractor that is sub par and barely provides the necessary equipment to get the job done. Usually a lower paying contractor as well.

Welder 1: hey man who’d you say you were working for down in corpus before you come here?

Welder 2: some “mullet outfit”, I can’t even remember the name. Hell I drug up when the rod room lady said that I had to provide my own tungsten.

Mullet outfit

Wearing business appropriate clothing on top while wearing sweatpants or running tights on the bottom. Perfect for a day of business video calls intermixed with a run or walking the dog.

It’s Monday, time for another mullet outfit. At three I’m going off camera and swapping the blazer for a tee.
