Suits, gay-straight alliance news
May. 30th, 2004 11:24 pmApparently it was someone's birthday.... happy happy to the now-older couple, though I've myself gone from celebrating birthdays to indifference, and soon to actively repressing. :-) There must be some LJ function to remind you of other users' birthdays, but I don't know what it is.
Went shopping for a suit today. I need something formal to wear to my stepson Dan's wedding in August, and this week![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
excessor invited me to join him at GLAAD's annual Media Awards Dinner next weekend, so I suddenly needed something even faster. My last suit purchase was in 1989, for a series of job interviews in the Bay Area. Gather round techno-kiddies, and I'll tell you how you used to have to wear expensive and uncomfortable clothing to get hired you would never wear on the job.... by the last time I did a job search in 1998, wearing a suit for a technical job interview was considered odd, possibly evidence of social impairment, depending on the atmosphere of the company involved, unless you were a new graduate or recent immigrant.
( Suit shopping and geek resistance )
( Gay-Straight Alliance loses, then wins, plus history notes )
