i feel like something's off..
something just doesn't feel right, but i don't know.
anyways.
so my boss is gone for the moment.. so i'm blogging! it's been a while..
anyways.. today.. i'm just at the computer.. and my boss is w/ his client and he comes over and tells me that he needs to talk to me when the people leave. and he looks really stern.
i've never seen him give me that expression before. even when he's yelling at me, he's not being serious about it.. but he looked DEAD serious.
so i just said, "ok.." and the whole time i'm thinking, "did i fuck up a file? did i name a document wrong? wtf..."
so the people leave.. and when i say bye to the clients. the husband smiles and says bye, but the wife won't even look at me and just leaves. i'm thinking, "whatever.."
so my boss comes and has me go into the other attorney's office and he closes the door. i just stand there and my boss looks at me, tries to say something.. stops himself.. and then does that again. so i finally was like, "did i do something wrong?"
boss: "no"
me: "...?"
boss: "jenny.. you're a very pretty girl so you can't be wearing what you're wearing"
me: "O_O??? what...??"
boss: "ugh.. help me out w/ this" (he's talking to the other attorney)
atty #2: "less skin, more professional"
me: ".. i thought it was casual fridays"
boss: "well a client complained that what you're wearing is TOO REVEALING and that it's not fit for a law firm"
me: ".. i'm like fully covered up. the casual thing, i just thought it was casual fridays, so i didn't think to look TOO professional. but if you want me wearing professional clothes on fridays, i'll do it"
boss: "well yeah could you? since you're the face of the company, you can't be dressing casual like the rest of us"
me (completely dumbfounded): "ok... but is this seriously revealing?"
boss: "the client complained so.."
and he sticks his hand out for a high five: "could you dress more professional, even on fridays?"
me: "yeah, that's no problem"
THE REVEALING CLOTHES i was wearing...
i wish i had a picture.. maybe when i get home, i'll upload a picture, and i can get an outside point of view...
- hair in a ponytail
- long black dickies jeans
- an off-the shoulder top that ended around my mid-thighs.. so not belly button or exposed back or any shit like that. the top comes up to around my collarbone area, so no boobage.. and literally? the only skin i'm showing are my arms & the tops of my shoulders..
so imagine how confused i was..
and i went to go talk to my paralegal (who's a girl) and i was like, "seriously.. it's not like i woke up this morning and was like, 'hmmmmm.. how slutty can i dress today???'"
of course, she cracked up.
and my bf says that maybe i'm a slut in denial? yeah.. some boyfriend huh.. hahah
anyways.. guess i'm going clothes shopping this weekenddddddddd :)
i mean... i now have an excuse to... hahaha
