Face Palmer User ID: 1149868 Germany 09/10/2013 03:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The fat one? Well, not really. If the uniform does not fit, it looks ridiculous. "The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title." Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women |
lightchild_uk Waiting for IT User ID: 45643611 United Kingdom 09/10/2013 04:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You also need the attitude and confidence to carry it off. A while a go I was going to see a customer on a Sunday afternoon, I was wearing my normal work clothes which is black trousers and a white shirt. My car is less than 1 year old and is black. Nearby my customer there was a fun run and loads of roads were closed and there were traffic jams all through the diversions. The sat nav found a route which would take me down some back streets, but would avoid the roads the runners were using. But the road I wanted to go down was blocked off by the police. So I pulled up wound down my window and said to the officers "I need to go down there" I waved my company ID badge and looked straight ahead. After a few seconds of silence and waiting, they moved the cones and drove through. For something like this, you need to look the part, but also act it. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33509203 I attribute half my success to being in good shape, good grooming and dressing well at work. I've been promoted over many a fat slob who was smarter and more skilled than I. Congrats for keeping the fraudulent monetary system with another shot of gas. Hopefully it won't stall out, or your self esteem is going to plummet. You sound like a woman |

That's one thing I love about tech, all that appearance shit goes out the window. It's all about what you can do and how well you learn. Reminds me of why Steve Jobs was so harsh on anyone who showed up at an interview dressed like a buttoned down suit and tie prick. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 46850490 United States 09/15/2013 01:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I know it's BS, but a few years ago I got bumped up to First Class when flying across the world, and I was looking good, put together. And I didn't ask for it. If I'd been dressed less, no way it would have happened. And I so appreciated that comfort. It's positively painful to fly a long way in Economy these days. UGH. |

But truth be told I never even leave the house without taking care. Sometimes I look around and just wonder how people can be so . . . well . . . SLOPPY! ANHEDONIC :shadowwolf: |
