    how was it for you? If you don't mind. :)

    My memory doesn't stretch back that far accurately, but if you picture something alone the lines of a merry get together on the flintstones that should be about right. (Do you guys all know the flintstones?)

    Do get better soon Chuck. Hugs. (gentle ones)

    Can you guys help me pick something to wear to my interview in the morning?

    I have it narrowed down to a few options.

    The pictures suck. Blame my webcam. The shirts did NOT photograph well on the hangers.

    You can't tell, but this shirt is actually a pattern of black and green leaves on that 'crinkly' material that always looks pleated.

    Attachment 31491
    This one is actually a royal purple.

    Attachment 31492
    This one is a robin's egg blue, and doesn't usually make me look that 'lumpy'

    Attachment 31493
    This one is bright green.

    It's in a factory setting, so I want to come across professional, but not too girly. I don't want them to think I'm afraid of manual labor and getting dirty.

    I agree with McFriar. Go with the purple one. They all look good. But for what your interview is purple might be best.

    OK, so two for purple and two for green and one for blue.

    Heath, have you looked at what the workers there normally wear and how they wear it (for example: shirt hems tucked in)?

    I love the print, but I think it might suit an office job a bit more. Out of the other three, I think I like the blue best with the major thought being dressing for the interview as though you were going to start right then.

    Regardless of which one you choose, remember it is you and your personality and attitude that will win them over. Positive thoughts and attitude. :D

    The few people I've seen going in and out have been wearing very casual clothes. Along the lines of jeans shorts and t-shirts. The ladies I talked to who work in the office were just wearing casual slacks and semi-casual tops.

    I'd be able to work in all but the green shirt. It tends to need adjusted.

    Living so close has a very very appealing benefits. If they do hire me and want me to start right after the interview, I can come home and chance and be back in 5-10 minutes, tops.

    I've always been told to dress for every interview like you're going out for a high-class job. That it's better to be overdressed than underdressed. Even if you're just interviewing at a fast food joint, it's never a bad thing to put extra effort into your appearance.

    Well, I'll take the first shirt out of the running. That leaves the other 3 to choose from.

    That just leaves putting together a stone bag for luck, and remembering to wear real shoes in the morning. Flip-flops are not appropriate for a job interview.

    Right now, I need to go to bed. Night everyone. It's up early for me, in the morning. My sister's giving me a wake-up call and everything.
