"You can dress like a Queen Bee!!!" - the radio ad says
@ Laurie - Thank you for your kind words. I think it was more a situation of circumstance as opposed to true hard work - but it's definitely a career I enjoy. I do have some expensive pieces as well, and they are lovely while they are around, but they're definitely not RRSP's!
@ MRL - My observations have paralleled yours; I think there's an element of looking put together and confident, but by no means does that necessarily equate to necessarily going broke!
@ IronKurtain - I think he means that I can buy nice things if I want to; vs. I must by nice things NOW. He has nice things, but he's staff :p
@ Isis - I don't think he's criticizing my choices; maybe a misguided way of reinforcement?
@ TraceyLiz - That reminds me of this one colleague who commented that women wearing scrubs were distracting to him, especially if they were too tight. Curves! Ladies have them!
@ Unfrumped - That's the basic stuff I came to YLF to learn
@ Suz - Thank you for the interesting article link - I may have to mix more yang with my yin elements. I think I also have a "therapeutic persona" of being more soft and nice, and use it to my advantage
@ Rabbit - You'll be pleased to know there is NO INTEREST on this line of credit as long as you continue to make at least $300 more in purchases a month!!!! It sounds like a financial nightmare to me.
