I don't twitter, I only vaguely understand the concept.
I just can't stand that sort of "Girls! Use the fact that men look at you as a sex object to get ahead!" because it basically says that the way things are are just fine, you just have to work the system.
And I do think you have to work the system, but that's because it sucks and not something I'm going to go around telling people is ideal, because ideally I wouldn't be shamed for asking for money, promoting myself, and console myself with being a good listener, being able to negotiate (instead of getting what I want).
Also, saying "women are horrible at this or that" always makes me want to smack the person who says it.
I'm cranky. I blame my aunt.

Wow. For idle curiosity I googled "fashionable business tote" and ended up here. It looks like someone said "Every professsion should have T-shirts and mugs and stuff." and then proceeded to apply a great deal of time and absolutely
no
creativity to making it happen. Zero. Don't bug the real estate appraiser. Did someone call an auto service tech? Fashion model powered by coffee.
I am taken aback.
Also I am of no help to GlamC. I never carry anything big enough for folders.
