gvfd: There was a time in my life when I dressed nice all the time. Rarely, if ever, would I go out without dressing decent and pretty well groomed—hair combed and shaved. The last five years or so I have changed a bit in that regard. A bit is probably an understatement. I have been known to dress like a farmer after a hard day of work or a handyman at a sleazy trailer park when I go to a store or out and about in the neighborhood. The fact is, sometimes I just throw on what is available or handy and run to the corner store not giving a hoot about what anyone might think. Because of my work, I can go a few days without shaving and sometimes the two together make me look like . . . well, you get the picture. I always figured people would talk and deal with me gauging my personality and my words not by how I may look. Well, maybe some folks do deal with me that way but I think that we are judged more by how we look than I had thought.fake watches
Recently, I joined a friend for an exercise workout at a relative’s closed, studio. Afterwards we went to a Denny’s for a wholesome healthy meal that only a Denny’s could provide. I had not shaved in two days and had on a pair of blue loose cargo pants and a purple long sleeve thermal looking tee shirt. To set my ensemble off just right I had a brown baseball cap on and black tennis shoes. Sexy, huh? Yeah right, in retrospect I should have stayed indoors near people who accept me no matter what.
We had a great meal at Denny’s. I don’t eat there often—once or twice a year—but the times that I have, I’ve pretty much loved it. Furthermore, every time I eat there I think about an old friend of mine who I used to teach martial arts with in my 20’s who went on to become the head of all of Denny’s—the whole company. He was a hard worker and after running Denny’s he became the president of Bakers Square. A real big shot, and when I eat there, I can’t help but think about someone I knew so well who ran such a large company as Denny’s. After leaving a good tip for the good service, I was at the register paying for our meal to a 20 something year-old server.moncler uk
I started talking to her a bit as I usually do to most everyone I deal with—small talk. I told her about my old friend who went on to run Denny’s and then Bakers Square. She took a long look at my unshaven face and crazy hat, longer hair and probably goofy clothes and smiled at me like, yeah, right, sure you know the ex CEO of Denny’s and Bakers Square. She was polite and smiled at me, but strictly, a smile from the book and you could tell she thought I was some old fart, talking nonsense. I chuckled to myself and left, smiling wholeheartedly. I found it amusing. Breitling Replica Watches
Before heading home, I stopped at a grocery store where no one knew me—I needed a couple of cans of cat food. Being unfamiliar with where items were, I asked an employee in her early twenties where the cat food was. She barely gave me an answer. She said like five words and ignored me. And this is after I asked her with a big old cool-aid smile and a positive friendly manner. But she treated me like a loser or like someone who didn’t really count. I chuckled to myself again and thanked her with a smile. When I checked out, she happened to be my check out person as well. Again, just by the book friendliness, nothing with gusto or from the heart. I smiled and thanked her and hopped in my car for the ride home. I took it all well and was not bothered much at all. However, I learned something. That we are quite often, rightly or wrongly, judged by our clothes and our grooming style. I also learned that I’m going to start watching my choice of clothes and grooming on those lounge type days! 6 марта 2012 года, 08:59
