I have done this when going in on the weekends or for a quick pop in if I’m off for the day.

Onsite at Lululemon it’s fine. Probably not Morgan Stanley.

Home office your partners had better like you but I definitely wouldn’t.

Sorry I meant local office haha

I wear sweats when i go into the office on Friday’s. Nobody says anything

I mean there are some sweatpants from like lululemon or Vuori that almost look like chinos, especially if black. It’s possible no one even notices…

I don’t doubt there isn’t some company out there that turns the other way with certain dress codes, but I have yet to be at a place where anyone is wearing yoga pants or sweatpants. And honestly even if I did, I will stick to wearing something professional and not get into that.

I’ve actually seen people at my office wearing shorts. I just couldn’t imagine wearing shorts in any circumstance at work.

I have a terrible voice that fluctuates between sounding confident to flat toned and then using fillers while I’m thinking, i.e., uh um.

So annoyed with myself.

The KPIs seem achievable and I’ll be in charm school to help build support within that timeline. Most of me thinks a 2 year path under these circumstances realistic but my inner skeptic is jaded. Anything I might have missed?
