Working for the Weekend

Dress code for the summer is "business casual." My shiny new summer associate manual came with a description of what this means, which was entirely uninformative: I've thus far learned that cut-offs, shirts with sexual slogans, and high-top sneakers are not appropriate. Basically, if you'd wear it to a grunge concert, or roll your eyes at it on the subway, it shouldn't come into the office.

This much I know. Why is business casual so darn squishy for girls? I will not be tricked by this nonsense. I'm wearing a suit.

Updates to follow. This summer's mission: Look cute, don't get fired.
