Alloy Apparel for those tall ladies out there. Their work style pants are a bit stretchy (without looking stretchy) and I have started wearing them as my normal pants even when I’m not working (because I can’t find jeans that fit to save my life).

A few black and a few navy and I have a full wardrobe.

Their leisure pants are also amazing.

Club Monaco pants are comfy

I have a face to face interview tomorrow and was wondering what the thoughts were wearing a nice knitted sweater instead of a blazer for an interview. My blazers don’t quite fit anymore and it’s not in my budget to buy a new blazer. I have one in mind that’s a turtleneck and can be styled with dress pants nicely. Either that or a cardigan….

I gave notice to one of the partners at my small firm last week. It was amicable, but she told me to wait to tell the other partner until he returned from vacation. In the interim, she told the other partner and he blew up. He is now making insane demands and threatening to call my future employer if i don’t meet them. Most problematically, he refuses to meet with me to discuss transitioning my cases over the next week. I am not sure what to do, and I am worried about ethical rules.

This is more of a rant than anything but advice is welcome. I’m so fed up with my manager micromanaging everything. We miss client deadlines frequently because deliverables are backlogged under their review, they make comments on things they weren’t in client discussions about, and won’t listen when told client wanted it X way. I’m at a loss for what to say to them because I’ve tried repeatedly to fix this to no avail.

I quit. I was respectful. Thankfully, every person I have told has been so nice, and I wasn't immediately bounced out by my leadership (which has happened), but I have been surprised by my own bittersweet tears.

I invested in them, but my investment and dedication were not reciprocated, which is why I ever even entertained leaving. I don't know why it hurts, but it really, really does.
