Business Casual

Fayetteville VA, in the auditorium. As I ran upstairs, I bumped into a person who looked familiar, and told them so. “I was thinking the same thing,” they told me. We spoke briefly and discovered we did not know each other. Inside the auditorium, a large square of tables was surrounded by chairs, most of which were occupied. Behind the tables was a single row of freestanding chairs. This is where I chose to sit. The meeting began, and I counted the attendees. After late stragglers arrived, there were thirty individuals. Ten were female, the rest male. All were Caucasian, with exception to one African-American female. All ages of adults were represented, from young, fresh-faced men and women to those well into their golden years. Some wore business casual attire, while others opted for more comfortable clothing. The leader, which changes with every meeting, first asked if there were any first-time members or guests in attendance, to which I raised my hand. They warmly welcomed me after I stated my name. I did not end my introduction with, “And, I’m an alcoholic,” as everyone else did before speaking, because I am not an…

this women’s clothing store magnate has been. This chain of specialty stores was initially established in 1954. As such, it had witnessed myriad changes in styles and fickle customer tastes since the midway point of the 20th century. The crux of the issue that Ann Taylor was experiencing was simple enough: it needed to change with the times without alienating its core customer base and style. Specifically, there was a conflict of sorts in the two directions that the store could have gone in at…

The argument I am proposing is that offices should have a more relaxed dress code. I believe that if dress codes are relaxed, employees will increase their job performance and overall confidence at work. This argument deals with human resources which is my current concentration in my major of business administration. This issue also arises in my current position at a bank. The dress code is business casual, but tattoos are not allowed to show when they used to be. This also touches on…

talk with ordinary questions such as: “What is your favorite color?”, “Do you like…”, “Would you ever….”, and so on. This is done so the other person can get to know you better and see if there will be a chance for second date. The way you should dress for this occasion would be very casual and comfortable. This is due to the fact that you are not going out to a fancy place so dressing too extravagant might send out the wrong message. Casual clothing should include wearing “a simple white tee…

We would wear the Save-A-Lot shirt that we are given, but some of us would wear different styles of pants, shoes, and outerwear. Even though what we are doing at work is against the dress code, we are all fully capable to doing our jobs around the store. The most surprising thing about dressing somewhat casually at work, we don't receive any complaints from our bosses or customers. In the article “Does Casual Dress Affect Productivity?” by CC Holland, she describes that if employers are…

Overall, Treasures of the Pharaohs 1 Line is a great game with graphics that are sure to grab your attention. While it cannot offer a huge payout, it certainly does enough to counteract this. The Wild symbol is to be lauded, as well as the expansive “Auto Play” feature – allowing the casual gamer the chance to play without really ‘playing’ as it were, and giving the game a few thrills and twists along the way. While ideal for the casual player, this game may not tempt in experienced players that…

students that have engaged in sexual activity with a friend ranged from 49 to 62% (Bisson and Levine, 2009). The results suggested that a primary issue that emerges is attributable to one person evolving an unreciprocated desire for romantic exclusiveness. Which turns the primary advantage of FWBR into a disadvantage. When these relationships ended, fewer than 10% evolved into romantic relationships, they either reverted to a traditional friendship or ended completely (Bisson & Levine, 2009). As…

In her article she speculates that at University traditional rules of dating don’t apply. A very casual approach is taken at University when it comes to dating which Goldhill suggests is because of student’s freedom of time, our tendency to hang out in groups and we get drunk a lot. Topuniversities.com published an article called “Five Unwritten Rules of University Dating”. The five unwritten rules all emphasised that any intimate moments, “having a thing”, saying you’ll meet again doesn’t mean…

this little boy seems rather reluctant to join in the ordinary erotic play. I’d noticed it once or twice before. And now again to-day. He started yelling just now…” (Huxley 31-32). She then continues with, “I’m taking him in to see the Assistant Superintendent of Psychology. Just to see if anything’s at all abnormal.” (Huxley 32) is a prime example of how promiscuous Aldous Huxley predicted our society to become in his satirized ways.
