Money is money... especially for those who aren't out of school yet etc. 8 dollars an hour is sure of a heck a lot better than 0 dollars an hour.

Am I the only one who sees irony in that this was posted on a "style forum"?

It'd probably be more accurate to say that you're the only one who cared to dignify that post.

I think monkey dog does have a point, wage snobbery aside ... dithering about which suit and tie will get you a job at the Gap is like deciding on a culinary school to prepare you for Arby's. It's just overkill.

As long as you dress presentably and don't start doing pelvic thrusts during the interview, you should be fine.

Relax.

If you were a hot blonde chick applying for Abercrombie & Fitch, I think the pelvic thrusts would help.
