One time I showed up to a Zoom call in this bright yellow shirt.
Someone said, “Wow, this just changed the whole vibe.”
That’s when I realized what you wear doesn’t just affect you, it affects everyone around you too.

So now I’m curious do you dress to boost your own mood, or to set the tone for others?
And what’s that one outfit that always makes you feel unstoppable?

Two good rules I teach those who do my work with me. 1) How you dress is a reflection of the respect you have for those around you. 2) Dress for where you’re going, not where you’ve been. I’m in commercial litigation, many of my clients are business casual offices. My rule is always wear a suit and tie for your first meeting with a client, let them tell you you’re overdressed and give you permission (figuratively) to dress more casually for future meetings. It’s a good to live by in any service industry.

Good advice!
I was taught dressing well expressed that you respected yourself and was a sign of good manners.

I dress in a basic golf polo everyday honestly. Comfortable shorts on bottom. Idc in the slightest about boosting others moods but I feel like a collar is the bare minimum especially when on cam.

Black tee

The only time I make a conscious color choice is when interviewing. Navy blue conveys trust.

Researching the job mkt & pay for nursing: It is so easy to set up a first interview esp. as a nurse. Set up a zoom meeting, in the zoom meeting ask abt job details and ask for the salary range. They will give it to you, and in my case it was the same range for both of the companies. (Hospice oncall nurse here👋). Then you fit in somewhere on that continuum based on education & experience—that where the negotiation comes in—they will make a case to place you as low as possible on the scale.

I am trying to write a stock letter to send to parents everyday that their child does not come to virtual learning sessions.

For some of my students this is everyday due to parent work schedules and disability issues.
Is anyone else having this trouble? What are you saying to parents to cover yourself?
