Sounds pretty grizzly, but it's 2017, so why should you have to conform to gender norms and the patriarchy of the world? Who's with me sisters?!

I think for girls that's not very proper, I never show my bare feet without a pedi. But maybe I am too picky😂

I think you should do what you want - there's no rule that says you have to have a pedicure. I DO take issue with your use off the term "butch" though. I don't get pedis-to me it's a waste of money. Not sure how that qualifies me as "butch." And this coming from a masculine-presenting lesbian. I'm sure you thought you were just joking, but I'm here to tell you that's offensive.

Are we talking clean, shaped, naked toe nails? Or are we talking I look like I escaped the jungle dirty, overgrown toe nails with calluses and so on?
I think we're all free to express our own notion of normal, but hygiene should be a basic expectation.

I've had to hear it all my life as a negative. I'm conditioned to hear it in a negative light. What's wrong with looking butch? Nothing...until you say it in a negative context.

Pwc3: your 'innocent' confusion is one of the underlying issues when it comes to unconscious bias. . In this context, butch is absolutely inferred as something less than appealing yet you are confused why someone would be offended? Here's a thought: no one gets to tell someone else how to feel.

I mean I would venture to ask how come we lady's can wear basically nothing yo the office ( deff helps with promotions 😜) and our male co workers need be in pants and a polo or dress shirt? Like why can't they wear shorts and flip flops?

I used to be picky about that and then life got in the way. Rock your naked toes!

I mean, I was talking clean but as Ey User 1 said, it's 2017, who are we to judge? Some people like going natural if you know what I mean ( underarms and legs...)

Senior Associate 1 - my apologies.

Looks trashy on the females. May be a distraction to the team/clients if you're a dude - totally depends on your local atmosphere.

I’m confused as to why a person would be offended by the term ‘butch’. There was no direct or passive harm in the context of the original comment. Be honest - were you *really* offended by an online throwaway comment, or just searching for an opportunity to express faux-outrage? People are too sensitive these days. Remember: we all reserve the right to offend. Being offended all the time just places oneself in victim status.

I have never worn makep, had manicures or pedicures but was just promoted to SM. Woman here. Just look neat and clean.

What's your plans on moving to Mumbai? Knowing apartment hunting can be a real bitch, some are planning to go back to hometown in the WFH week. i.e work at office at designated week and live in temporary accommodation, and then travel back.

How's your work environment? Do you feel like upper management has your back? Ex. You get an expensive car repair bill, would you be able to ask your work to loan you the money for it if you couldn't?

Hi Everyone,
I hope life is treating you well.
I recently moved to Ottawa from Louisville, Kentucky, and I am looking for an accounting job in Ontario or Quebec. I have work experience in Tax& Finance and an MBA in Accounting. I was wondering if any of you could refer me for an open position in your company ( after we’ve had a chance to talk, of course) or put me in contact with a member of your hiring team.
Please let me know if any of you would be comfortable doing so.

Thanks,
Sarah
