Not Jesse, but without my glasses on I can only see about three inches in front of my face.

I have this too. I often fall asleep while I'm getting my hair did.

Not Jesse, but without my glasses on I can only see about three inches in front of my face.

Me, too. Which is a pain when my cat jumps on my chest, decides that my glasses are in desperate need of marking with her chin, and completely messes up my lens by rubbing her face all over them.

Happy birthday Dana!

At work, I used to try to not wear jeans, but I have given up that ghost. I wear tshirts with odd slogans or universities or the school's stuff itself.

This week I wore dress pants with a blouse on two days, jeans today (it would have been dress pants today but Grace puked on me. yay.) and then my pink gingham junta shirt, a skirt and cowboy boots.

So I guess there is NO dress code.

Our wings are not tired.

But it's cute on him.

Isn't everything cute on him? I've only seen Garcia a couple times because I don't really watch the show. So Hardison gets my vote.

We have no dress code at our office and in the summer barely there tank tops and short shorts are perfectly acceptable. If we have to go to a client office we make ourselves decent but still find jeans and a company shirt works well enough. Florida casual.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Do people ask you about your shirts, Kat? I'm trying to think when the last time I wore my PGJ was. When I wore my b.org Security shirt last time, someone did ask me if I did security. I guess I have that face. Or that back.

I think I've mentioned that my crazy semi-boss comes to work in track suits sometimes. She's at the far end of the spectrum (because: crazy) and obviously some of us privately think it's inappropriate, but I doubt anyone's ever spoken to her about it.

The unofficial dress code varies a bit by department but unless a client or upper management is involved, I think the average is probably one step below business casual.

How do we feel about "shall"? I just got an email from a stranger with whom I'll be working in the future. As far as I know he's American, but he says, "I shall definitely use this service" and then uses it again in the next paragraph. Pretentious, secretly English, or what?

Has to write a lot of business requirements?

Flea keeps asking questions I'm not allowed to answer. Harrumph.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The dress code at my office is you have to be dressed. People pretty much wear whatever they want.
