And, if they can't figure that out - then a hat and double breasted coat would only get them to ask you to deliver bags to the rooms!
Why do people want to look less casual? I find it kind of silly. I'd wear a clown suit if it would pay more. BWP...OUT |

I've read the FOM carefully and think we can get away with ALPA Belts, socks, and boots. Did you use a spare lanyard to make the thong?

Jakal Interesting take, but real commitment isn't a pin you wear or a lanyard and it surely isn't what you say. Real commitment is acting as a group and acting in the best interest of that group. Real commitment is keeping enough liquid assets around so you don't have to call the Union a week into it and tell them how bad it hurts. Real commitment has to do with your direct actions that let management know you are serious. They are more aware of these actions than any symbolic value anyone may attach to any trinket. |
