  • So it’s kind of a long story! To try and shorten it: I didn’t wear jeans much as a kid/teen because I have problems with my stomach and the button waist hurt my stomach. So I always had stretch pants on, and they weren’t a great look for me. I was already bullied a lot and the pants didn’t help any. Then I entered the working world and had to wear dressy clothes. I honestly didn’t really care though. 27 years of dressy clothes, and my boss retired and her replacement did not give a flying fig what I wore. Over the years, my stomach issues had gotten worse but I actually found buttoned pants more comfortable now. I went hog wild and bought all the jeans. All kinds of cute shoes to go with the jeans. I was fashionable! Yay! Aaaand then a year ago we got a new Big Boss who decided to require uniforms. He gave us a year to get used to the idea before we had to start following the new rules. Today was actually my last jeans at work day; Thursday it’s on to uniforms. I don’t actually mind the uniforms, but I am seriously mourning my cute clothes because outside of work I’m basically a shut-in and will almost never wear them again.
