lol, actually I have no clue what to wear. i went through a depression state a few months ago and got rid of my dressy clothes. I wore the two outfits I could think of to my interview and the follow up when I filled out my paperwork. I am hoping to have aenough left out of hubby's check to find a cute clearance outfit to wear. It's business casual, but finding pants that fit me is such a pain. I'm just over 5ft and most pants are wayyy too long. I hate the idea of buying something then having to cut it off or hem it up. They never look right when the knees are at your ankles anyway. Maybe I will wear what my sister refers to as a "Tammy shirt" (the shirts that are everywhere now. They are tighter on the top but loose on the bottom part... blah.. I'll have to find a picture of one. and a pair of blue dress pants, if I can't buy something.
As for my first check... Iwill have to get a couple of outfits to wear, pick up things like gas and pullups... esp since we will be using more gas for me to work and I hope to have enough left to get the bedding set that I posted. :D. It all depends on how much I make and what we are out of. I also need to pick a few more things up for mom. :dreaming: . Maybe one check will get it all.
Apparently thay are called "babydoll" shirts. Mine is white with blue designs.

I like it, you're gonna look great. Though I don't know how the pants will look with pullups on under them. Maybe you should try Depends. :sidesplit:
I'm sorry, I couldn't resist, you set me up. :lol2::lol2::lol2:

Congratulations on the new job Traci!! How exciting to start something new. Before you tell us all about your first day.

[DianaB]

Congratulations on the new job. I'm sure that you'll manage to look great for your first day. It sound like with your height that you should be shopping in the petite section. I know that Penney's has a nice petite section in their stores.

[Tink]

Good luck!
I hope the job is everything you want it to be.

[Gina]

Traci,
How did your first day go? Details, inquiring minds want to know!!!!

[Gina]

Traci do answer we are waiting < pacing back and forth > lol Hope it was a good day!

[DianaB]

Traci, you know that we're dying to hear how your first day went!!!

[Chandra Amaya]

Lol, It was pretty fun. I saw a few people i remember and I seem to get along well with most of the class. We have a former CNA and a former Nurse who I talked with quite a bit. There is also a woman who has four kids. She is 33 and has a 17 year old. We have quite a lot in common. The most interesting things I saw and heard were a farmer who told us about his farming and :eek: :eek: Some one in a former class thought the state abbreviation "NE" meant New England. :yelrotflmao: . We also had some one in my class say she wanted to go to the beach in Orlando. I was rolling. We had a great day and it looks like I can make quite a bit of money. I will get 30 hours a week at $8.00 an hour plus a rolling commision plan. I think I should make atleast $500 a week which will be a great help to us. My DH took me out today to buy some new jeans and a shirt. We just happened to get a late Easter gift from his great grandmother. (always money) So we had a great day after work as well. I also found out that I can wear jeans :thumbup: So I got three pairs of jeans and a cute black and white babydoll shirt. He even bought dinner so I didn't have to cook. I am looking forward to tomorrow and to getting on the phones on Thursday. Wish me luck!

[Janet]

So happy you enjoyed your first day. Sounds like you had as much fun after work as during.

[Marilyn]

Traci, so happy for you and hoping that all continues to go well!!! It's great that you were able to stay home with your children for a while, but know it must feel good to get out and make some money for a while. Sounds like you have the wardrobe all worked out. I am about your height, and find that petite pants work well!! Wishing you the best!!!

[katcarasella]

Good Luck Traci, though it sounds as though you're doing great, I'm so happy for you. Keep us up to date.
