Day Three
Neither of the two partners I work for play with their balls in front of me. So in that sense, this job is a big step up from the last one. Also, not only do I get a whole new crop of grandmas to get used to, but both attorneys are grandpas. It's gonna be interesting.
Both guys have warned me they're very busy and I'll be rushing around a lot. Ummm... okay. Whenever you're ready.
Yesterday some random partner's secretary was out, so he gave me several hours of work to do. Towards the end of the day I handed him a folder with the finished work. The guy was on the phone when I arrived at his office, so I walked out after delivering the work. Today I heard nothing. Certainly no thank you (I wasn't waiting for one), but usually a new person gets feedback.
Every single grandma keeps candy on her desk. M&Ms mostly. Maybe it's from Halloween, but I doubt it. Yesterday when i was given the office tour, I was shown the "office where people like to take naps" in between meeting 3827 people all dressed the same way.
This law firm has no jeans day. The idea that I can't wear jeans on Fridays really bums me out, so I've channeled my inner Tim Gunn and decided to find a Friday jeans alternative. Any suggestions? I'm thinking cords.
That's all I've got, sorry. I'm exhausted.

they might be grandpas but they've got nothing on yours.
candy is evil. n
This might be a situation where you "need" Travelers pants (from Chico's). I think the investment might be worth it - they're a good wardrobe piece.
I'm thinking you could wear something non-casual under your clothes that no one can see. Like racy lingerie. Or nothing. Or would that be inappropriate?
