Two points:

(1) I love, love, love their tee shirts and exercise clothes.

(2) I am a big fan of the shelf bras. They seem to be falling out of favor (remember a couple of years ago they were in, like, every brand's tanks and in a variety of types? sigh.). They are perfect for us b-cup types.

I, too am a big fan of the shelf bras. You can still get them in exercise wear (see Athleta, for example, where I spend way too much of my piddly salary), but I have not seen them in regular camis this year much at all. Alas. I join in your lament.

Then I've been buying bras that shouldn't fit me. But wait. They do fit me. I think I am a b-cup type. Thanks for making me reason it through though. Have I ever led you to believe that I care what your bra size is?

Why are you being such a bitch?

At this juncture I'd like to us get down to brass tacks and make sure the agreement is fully-baked. You have to walk before you can run, you know.

Excellent feedback!!!. It's clear you've signed on to the Mission/Vision. Keep this up and we'll fast track you.

Is that the i-banking equivalent of "no minimum billables"?

I was not aware that I was "being such a bitch", but I note that it is Friday. Perhaps you just don't get me?

The rest of us just don't feel that we're entitled to claim some sort of special status based upon the reflected glory of their money.

Speak for yourself. Some of us represent dirtbags, krazies and drunken drug addicts for a living.

You act as though they're mutually exclusive.

Yes, at the end of the day, only two more days in the work week. Woo hoo!

I mean, and still some people persist in treating you like crap" he meant one person in particular most are really sweet to me. I said, that is the way it goes, and I've accepted that.

How the fuck did this come up in conversation? He was berating you for putting the dividers in the closing binder out of numerical order and said "What kind of idiot are you?" and you responded "My IQ is 105" and he said "damn, most of us isn't that smart"
