Herman by Jim Unger for April 30, 2017

“I wish to apply for your job.”

“Radical, Dude; have at it.”

I’ve been in this situation before. It’s always awkward when they’re your superiors and you consistently dress more neatly than them.

I got one that will likely top anyone! Went to an interview and no one told me that the lady I was interviewing with was trying to be a he. I certainly had no issues with that but a “heads-up” would have been nice. What’s really funny to me in this Herman is that SHE looked a lot like the interviewer in this cartoon…. ;-)

I’ll bet Eno Camino would love to work there.

They say you should dress for success.

Reminds me of a guy I worked with who was clean-shaven when he was hired. After a little while he began growing a beard, and when I asked him about it, he told me he always wore a beard, but his father advised him to shave it off when going on the interview. Then he met our manager, who at the time was sporting a full beard himself.

Must be in silicon valley.

YETHSIR ! Been there, done that a couple times !!!

Been there, done that… when I interviewed for my last job I showed up in a coat and tie. All the folks doing the interviewing were mostly in jeans and casual shirts (including t-shirts). That was the last time I wore a coat or a tie.

But then this is western Colorado and dress up is only for funeral directors and the like. At the time I was coming over from the Front Range where coat and tie weren’t quite so unusual.

folks around here wear their fancy white gumboots to dress up for a trip to the supermarket…

They both look like something the cat dragged in.
