I worked at Weil when I was a legal proofreader and even we had a dress code, even though clients never saw us. "No pants with patch pockets" was one of the directives I remember.

Well, they're not tights, so they're different from tights? I just think they look really casual.

Personally, I look askance at those that don't take advantage of denim on Fridays, but I like judging.

Too warm in the summer, though we can wear shorts (as long as they are dressier shorts - i.e. not cutoffs, spandex, athletic-style shorts, etc.).

I think it's funny that someone told me we have casual Friday here, except that's really a lie, because apparently any day can be casual if you want it to be -- my boss was in jeans yesterday for no apparent reason. People dress all kinds of ways here, so I figure the clothes I already own are fine, and will continue to be more casual on Fridays...

I work at a Weil competitor and we can wear just about whatever we want as long as they're not shorts or sweats. T-shirts without logos are common, but with logos are pretty rare outside of Fridays. We never see customers at all, and even when the Dutch overlords come to visit, they don't tell us to gussy up.

Falcon 9 launch was aborted at T-6 seconds. The rocket has put itself in safe mode.

Too warm in the summer

I have no indication that the temperature here varies significantly with the temperature outside, so I can't see my clothing varying too much.

Disturbing Job Ads: 'The Unemployed Will Not Be Considered'

Still waiting for a response to the 300 resumés you sent out last month? Bad news: Some companies are ignoring all unemployed applicants.

In a current job posting on The People Place, a job recruiting website for the telecommunications, aerospace/defense and engineering industries, an anonymous electronics company in Angleton, Texas, advertises for a "Quality Engineer." Qualifications for the job are the usual: computer skills, oral and written communication skills, light to moderate lifting. But red print at the bottom of the ad says, "Client will not consider/review anyone NOT currently employed regardless of the reason."

In a nearly identical job posting for the same position on the Benchmark Electronics website, the red print is missing. But a human resources representative for the company confirmed to HuffPost that the The People Place ad accurately reflects the company's recruitment policies.

"It's our preference that they currently be employed," he said. "We typically go after people that are happy where they are and then tell them about the opportunities here. We do get a lot of applications blindly from people who are currently unemployed -- with the economy being what it is, we've had a lot of people contact us that don't have the skill sets we want, so we try to minimize the amount of time we spent on that and try to rifle-shoot the folks we're interested in."

...

Ads asking the unemployed not to apply are easy to find. A Craigslist ad for assistant restaurant managers in Edgewater, N.J. specifies, "Must be currently employed." Another job posting for a tax manager at an unnamed "top 25 CPA firm" in New York City contains the same line in all caps.

Any more cupcake suggestions? Especially non-chocolate ones (y'all have had great chocolate suggestions, I have plenty of options that sound DELISH there). So far for non-chocolate, though, it's kinda...lemon, and mojito. And plain vanilla. Maybe orange. I feel like that's boring. Although there will be cheesecake. (This is for my dad's 70th birthday. There will be around 80 people. I have no idea how many cupcakes I plan to make--my sister's kitchen is not as well set up for baking as mine is)

Any more cupcake suggestions?

Vanilla with colored sprinkles inside?
