Granny Panties are the BEST so I am LOVING this trend. Finally my underwear drawer full of hanes full coverage briefs are HIGH FASHION.

I just sit there sometimes at my desk, my mind exploding, as I watch grown-ass millennials reenact scenes from Mad Men.

One of those told me that he has more experience in our field than anyone on our company’s management team (of which I am a member). I have been in “the field” since he was an undergraduate. My female boss even longer. Another female colleague on the committee has the same number of years as he does. The only ones…
