the proper response when someone advertises wearing jeans once a week as a great aspect of a workplace is to ask if this is a dilbert cartoon that we are living in, right now

you are amazing

humor is the only proper response to this world.

You might be surprised what "Business casual" actually translates to in a company. Ours is business casual and that doesn't seem to mean much more than no jeans for women. The women get away with a lot - from stripper heels to off-the-shoulder sweaters. Anything trendy pretty much goes.

one of them specifically mentioned blouses and skirts. when i go in i'll check out what people are wearing. none of my clothes are immodest, they are just weird.

I worked in a "business casual" atmosphere where certain individuals wore pajama pants and big, plaid slippers. They were at the questionable end of the spectrum, but still, you can get away with a lot! For women "business casual" usually just means no T-shirts, no jeans, no sweats, and no sneakers... so you might be able to make it work! Maybe wear a blouse and slacks every once in a while when there's an important meeting, but that's it!

the only reason i am worried is that the vast majority of my clothes are weird and/or creepy. i don't own anything immodest and i never wear jeans or sneakers, so i'm not too worried about that. . .

I really should just start blogging

[myglock_yrface]

I like to pretend tumblring is my job & I'll one day have monetary compensation for all th 'work' I do on it.

Re: I really should just start blogging

[hooveraardvark]

i think no one actually makes money from blogging . . . i think all those girls just live off their boyfriends. i mean, that's what i'm doing right now so it's not a criticism haha!

yr probably right

[myglock_yrface]

Really I just wish I could get free swag from companies I actually like.

Re: yr probably right

the really famous ones probably make a living off the opportunities that come along separate from blogging (rumi, susie). but at the lower end of "famous" and down i think most of the ones who appear to not have a day job are trust fund kids and their acne shoes are paid for by their parents.

but yes, i wish i could get free swag. i am always jealous when people get sent things like henry holland tights or anastasia radevich shoes.

Oh man, those fortune cookies are pretty great

I don't know who or what you are already following, those are just 3 that I like lately.

I also like this one a lot, though at least partially because I am super jealous cause he is like a 16-year-old kid in Saudi Arabia and I'm like, man I wish I knew how to find as much cool art stuff as he does RIGHT NOW, let alone 12 years ago when I was his age:

oh sweet, i'm glad you replied because i follow way too many fashion-y tumblrs and i want something different.

those are probably the greatest fortunes i ever received . . . i should do a better job of recording them for posterity.
