what size do you wear? surely t-dub can hook you up.

2/18/2008 10:57:32 PM

surely hollister can hook you up....brah!

2/18/2008 10:58:20 PM

heh.

I have bags and bags of my husband's old khakis sitting in the attic. Plus a drawerful that should probably join them. So, yes, perhaps I could.

If they really want to keep you as a member of their staff, they would likely agree to some sort of clothing allowance. I know of several people whose jobs require them to wear a uniform, but the standard clothing provided by the company does not come in anything remotely their size. Their jobs have allowed them to independently purchase clothing that fits and they reimburse them the cost of the clothing within reason.

they can find someone else for $7 a hr, no big loss....not like there is a shortage...

"the money right now to just drop on some pants that are going to get stained and bleached, etc"

I had to wear khakis on my last job. I wore the same damn pair, stains or no, every day. There were significant tears in the back that I had to cover with my shirt.

Suck it up and get a pair of pants at Goodwill for less than 5 dollars. If you don't have five extra dollars, get another job.

See if your dad will front you 20 bucks to get a couple of cheap pairs.

also, I might work at looking at your budget to see if anything can be cut out.

goodwill FTW. seriously, the rich people donate some really nice clothes.

Lol at you guys for thinking I'm in tears over a pair of pants. I'm not that worked up, it's just a matter of them springing a dress code like this on us all of a sudden.

Also, I am a female, so I can't go and buy men's clothes (at least I don't want to).

Also, what is so confusing about me not wanting to wear a pair of my church pants to work?

Also, stop making such a huge fuss over the situation I had, I already agreed that I should go to a thrift store, read the thread next time folks.

Also, I'm up at 5 in the morning because I think I have a UTI and I really don't wanna have to go to the doctor for it.

2/19/2008 5:13:29 AM

ahhh, I read the UTI thread first... Now it actually makes sense. (The pants part, not the "all that sex" part.)

If God really loved you, would he care if your pants were dirty?

What's this about having to buy several pairs so you don't have to wash them every day? Do you seriously wash your pants every day??? Ha, I wash my jeans like once a month if that.
