some looks never go out of style
Kjel.org made a trip to Bellevue and Seattle this weekend to see some further flung members of the organization. There was much delight among the underlings as this story regarding my sartorial choices was related by the CFO:
The CFO, Jr VP and I were at Nordstrom’s a few weeks ago. I decided to buy some new shorts, and on the spur of the moment, a new polo shirt too. I happened to be wearing my standard leave-the-house-on-a-summer-weekend outfit: tan shorts and polo shirt, in this case, black. At Nordstroms, I picked up some tan shorts (same make and model as the ones I happened to be wearing), and a black polo shirt. The Nordstrom salesman was initially too professional to make fun of me as I stood at the counter paying for a new version of the same outfit I was wearing, but the CFO was not. Once she started, clothes-boy joined in on the fun too.
I can tell you that he got no tip that Sunday afternoon, and the CFO had a letter of reprimand placed in her file.
