Day 14: Retail Job

I work a retail job. The dress code is really casual. Thank God.


Jeans are legit as long as they are jeans from this particular store. Cool. I can't really wear jeans the rest of the week, so I'm kinda stoked to be able to wear them today.

I realized this morning that while I was putting this post together, I talk a lot about how it's a "casual" day. Well, see, I live in Vermont. Here in Vermont, everything is casual. Sometimes I ask customers at my retail job, "Well, what's the dress code at your work place?" if they're looking specifically for work clothes. "Well, you know, it's Vermont," they reply, which is code for "khakis are business attire here." And it's true. In my last full-time place of employment, we had several nice awards dinners, and my truly awesome male work colleagues tended to wear suits with sandals. Yep...we're hippies here. And I kinda like it.
