It's ok to wear black pants, a black-and-red-floral turtle-neck, and a black oxford shirt to an internal job interview, for a job that the person who is leaving usually wears casual pants and a nice shirt or sweater but sometimes jeans and a t-shirt to work in, isn't it?
When I applied for the current job, I showed up in an embroidered denim outfit. I work in jeans and a t-shirt every day. I figure this is a step up. And I don't really have a heck of a lot of choice. None of my nice, office-interview clothes fit any more.
That's sounds like a formal enough outfit to me, WindSparrow.
For an internal interview, I'd say a notch up from the everyday, but not as dressy as an interview amongst strangers. IOW, you're fine.
What -t said, Andi. I think that sounds fine.
In meme news, why can't I let go of this confrontation fear? I've had multiple parent phone calls/meetings these past two weeks, and they always go fine. And yet? I am an utter mess every time. This time I had to send off the "no, your daughter can't make up the placement test she never signed up for in the first place" email, and I'm convinced that screaming and yelling is in my future. CUT IT, BRAIN.
I got a card in the mail from my father today. Thought it was strange Dad sending me a Valentines Day card and all. Nope.
Hey O_A, Thought we forgot about you for Christmas, eh? Well, better late than never. Love Pops
With a shiny American Express gift card.
connie, I can't remember if I wished you a happy birthday earlier, so, just to be on the safe side....
Happy Birthday, Connie!!!
One of my friends invited me to her son's birth. It's going to be at a birth center with midwives, and she says she wants a lot of people there, and we should bring food and wine and make it a party. Never been to a birth before, or seen a baby younger than about two days.
I was at my cousin's, Hil. Even in a crowded hospital room, with a nurse and father vying for asshat of the year, it was totally awesome. What you describe sounds like a fun and wonderful experience.
I would worry if that was my plan that I would change my mind at the last minute, and have to get someone to shoo everyone away.
Tonight, the answer to "What does one wear to go swing dancing* at the sex club?" ranged from "flip flops and a pair of boxer shorts" to "a utilikilt and hiking boots" to (my choice) "a miniskirt and a harry potter tshirt".
t edit: *please note, this was traditional east coast swing dancing, and did not involve trapezes or wife swapping. Nor was there sex. At least, not for me. Plenty of other people got some, I'm sure.
