Blimp folders about ready to go to work! That envelope goes in the trailer! Now I have a picture of all this to boost the story....

The blimp does not go in the trailer. They are flown cross country between locations just like any other aircraft.

I know that... but there are countless 20-something year old women that don't. Now I have a pic to put on my iPhone to seal it. "Blimp folder" is a standard story that men in my profession tell when asked "What do you do?" At a bar. Ask @HackerF15E about his career as a professional bowler.
The funny end to the shenanigans is that I got a chance to fly the Good Year at Long Beach. I told their CP about the "I'm a blimp folder!" game... His response was "So you guys are the reason a disproportionate number of women ask if we fold the envelope!"

Hah, I got ya now. Almost every single passenger I ever flew in the blimp asked the same question. "Do you guys deflate that thing and pack it in the trailers when you go to a new city???"
It took everything in me to not say what I was really thinking.

Oh how I don't miss that. In fact, a reduce rest day of 135 would be better than flying that.
See what I did there....
