I couldn’t pull it off, but I’m a huge fan of the stripey one.

Hah! I had forgotten they dropped Ivanka’s line. That makes this better.

Also, would totally wear two of the outfits in those photos.

My second shittiest summer job was doing floorsets at a rural Macy’s at 5 a.m. (Disclaimer: I had given my dog a three month flea preventative only to discover she was allergic to flea preventative and we spent the whole summer dealing with explosive doggy diarrhea, so it may not have been all about Macy’s.)

I worked for a while at an Eddie Bauer, and we could literally look up the price of items from World War II at its current value.

Alas, this is becoming standard at most institutions.

Celebrity Insta makes me feel bad about my life. I am not color-coordinated.

I work with eighth graders in a one-on-one setting fairly often.

There are no words. NO WORDS.

You’re one of them now.

(I wanna put an Emo Kylo Ren gif here but Kinja and I are fighting.)

To be fair, that’s really only like ... 12 pairs of their tights.

SO NOT BRAND

Look, he was just asking them to bend over so he could check their tights for visibility issues.

Back in the day, YogaNerdMD said they weren’t allowed to talk about other employees because it went against one of the yoga sutras. Maybe he asked if someone on the board ate a carb, since she was looking a little .... *hushed whisper* .... bloated.

Did he eat a carb? Or forget to fat-shame his clients?

The reusable factor is definitely a plus. I was just thinking about the need for clean hands being a potential challenge.

I haven’t used a menstrual cup, but am under the impression they require some pretty specific hygiene. Is it practical for someone who’s also dealing with homelessness?

It was just before that became a trendy subject. They identified as a college student.

It was a weird day.

If it’s complex, it’s always been a little risky. I am thinking specifically of a time I posted about being low income as an adjunct (I was making $500/credit and capped at 12 credits per semester, so consistently making about $15k a year for a full toke workload) and another commenter went bananas that I DARE imply…

And you stand there in court and say you can’t take them home because you aren’t sure you can reconcile their wrongs with your morals, and the judge says they go home with you or they go to jail where they WILL NOT be rehabilitated. So you either try to help and become complicit in the eyes of society or you say no…

*shrug* My finger hovered over “publish” for long enough that I have to admit to myself that I knew better. You can’t talk about some stuff on the internet. Or honestly, in person.
