I get that. But I'm kind of like that coffee shop outside of the theater, after everyone flows out of YouJesse or YouBoob, happy, then I have a chance. My next show is "How to Sort the Seniority List on Microsoft Excel".

Speaking of Excel, did they take away our deal with MS Office? I still can't find it.
Search Microsoft on that page. It was hard to find.

Costco ... $9, member via friend's business. In Portland there is no sales tax & bus is free.

Anyone who over pays for pants by 65% ... well, what can I say.

"$200 custom fit" must be a part for a boat or airplane. Can not even comprehend what the heck you are referring to. For $200 I'd be expecting "genes" not "jeans."

It has been a while since we handed out any awards on this site. Leave us your address and one of our lovely assistants will get this to you right away in the mail:

My point was, looking sharp doesn't necessarily mean low end slacks from a low end retailer. Expensive clothes last a lot longer and they tailor them to you. I've bought clothes from H & M and Target that lasted 2 weeks. I've had jeans and pants that lasted 7 years. Are you one of the guys on layovers that wears the tight stonewash jeans with NB sneakers? I understand this is definitely the wrong venue to discuss fashion but hey, most pilots are nerds.

This fashion discussion is really going to get interesting when the new hires start asking for advice about uniforms pants.

You've got your $200 fine woolens or you've got Check Essential's solution:

I have no earthly idea what tailored AG jeans are. I'm guessing that they have lots of bling on the back pockets though, and look really nice, ON A WOMAN. I do agree that more expensive cloths last longer, but $200 for man's jeans is absurd. While some in our ranks do dress horribly on layovers, you can still dress nice without looking like a woman.
