More than a year ago, I blogged about the hideous uniforms at the office. After the summer break this year, we were
They just can't get over the color yellow:
This is the only one I can tolerate:
A few days ago, I wore this shirt to work. On my way home, I was caught by the police somewhere along Edsa for dropping of my officemate at a drugstore. The police officer told me I should've dropped her off a few meters away, then pointed to an area with a large sign that says "NO LOADING AND UNLOADING." Are you freakin' kidding me?? Obviously, he was hoping to receive a bribe that day from an unassuming victim by making up some traffic violation. Of course I didn't give him that satisfaction. After I talked to him and casually mentioned where I was from, he immediately let me go. I was thinking his reaction had a lot to do with my uniform.
Less than an hour later, I was freshening up at a restroom in Power Plant when the lady guard approached me and asked, "Ma'am, tenant po ba kayo?" She had to repeat the question since I didn't get it the first time. Apparently, she thought I worked at the mall. And what do I blame for it? No other than the shirt. Nyahaha. Just when I thought my uniforms would always command respect. Note to self: Do not wear uniform in sushalin places. :))
On the same day, I was walking around the mall and saw Ateneo Law students who looked more lawyerly than I did. I didn't have the heart to tell them that in a few years, they'd probably look like this. :))
I wonder when our office would come up with uniforms that would actually make us look and feel like we're lawyers?
