I’m starting a new role soon that will be hybrid. The attire is casual business casual so jeans are acceptable. I’ve worked remotely for five years now with limited in person meetings. What do I wear?

I’ve purchased the following so far:
-skinny ish booth leg dark wash jeans
-brown plaid blazer
-black loafers
-two sweaters

I have neutral tops (black and tan), boots, some dresses, black skinny jeans and dark wash skinny jeans, and cardigans, dress pants, and dress tops. What am I missing?

I wear a lot of sweaters and boots too, but it sounds like you could be fine without those. I’d wait a couple weeks to see what others wear and how you feel.

Solid advice— wait to see what the people in your office wear before going out and buying a crazy wardrobe only to be in a polo and khaki environment. 😑

Have you ever accidentally insulted your boss, pretty hard core, in a meeting? What I do? It was a total foot in mouth, but it was a huge meeting. I feel like if I avoid an apology it might actually be better for me so that we can pretend I didn't realize it was insulting and was just harmlessly talking...

Really looking for a way to turn around a toxic building culture with staff to staff bullying, cliques/social isolation, hard feelings on big topics (racism, non acceptance of gender identity). Last year the staff polarized with the lead bully whom I helped leave. And the lead gossip (who was my secretary) that gained their sympathy and turned them against me. She also left. Now I need to regain trust and eliminate unacceptable teacher behaviors. Open to any and all advice.
