Business Professional Blues
Well... First Year is starting a new job. Which means the ending of my work from home crappy ass job and the start of working with the general counsel for a corporation. I am so excited about the job, it pays much better, its law related.... and its NOT in DC!!!! thats right... yet again I have managed to avert the suductive lure of the city.
It is however in Tyson's Corner.... which is not exactly rural, but hey... there will be a place for me to park my car so I am pleased. The only thing that sucks (and someone will make fun of me for saying this sucks, since I am in law school and all) but while the rest of the huge company must dress in office casual the legal department is stuck in 3-piece suits all day everyday. Which means I will be going to class in a suit every night ;(
However, I do look pretty hot in formal wear so..... I guess I can't whine too much, plus it will give me the perfect reason to go shopping, and I will be vey convenient to the mall ;)
Hope everyone's week is off to a good start. Good luck studying for finals ;)

I have to share your blues about the suit thing. While my summer job doesn't require that I wear a suit, they do require that I dress in business casual. One would think this wouldn't be a big problem for me, considering I wore business casual every day for four years in Cubicle Hell; but somehow, after a full year of scrubbing it up in jeans and sneakers, the thought of donning decent clothes makes me shudder; and not just that, but like you said, going to CLASS at night in said decent clothes - sucks! I'm contemplating starting a grassroots firm when I graduate where all attorneys can wear jeans and flip flops - want in? ;-)
its all perspective. people from nova who live around tysons will sometimes claim dc. it bothers me when people tell me they're from nova. i'm originally from new england. when i ask where you're from i want a town. dont say nova. nova is not a town, or even a legitimately recognized area. where am i from? the united states.
