You might want to rethink that theory. I know first hand of employers who will ask reception folks about the behavior of potential employees who were waiting in the lobby before interviews.

You are correct. However, if someone fails to hire you because you slipped and fell on their lobby floor, I wouldn't feel like I had lost anything. Who wants to work for a company that is that shallow?

I just received a shipping confirmation on my JCrew Alden Longwing I ordered via the recent 30% sale... they had originally said it was backordered until Feb (which I thought was their excuse to not accept the order)... however it looks like they are on their way to me... great to get 30% off... can't wait to see when they show up..
