It all started when I was working at a university. I had been tempting at a job at Baptist Hospital. I really disliked the job. It was high work load and the girl who was my supervisor was very rude. I got another temp job at another hospital, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center and dealt with a nasty sort lady who had a complex with always wanting to be right.
Then in the summer of 2017, things changed for me when I received a call late Friday afternoon. Right on that call, I was offered a job, a temp job but nonetheless, paying almost twice the pay I was making at a part time job at a bookstore. I was to start that Monday. And I was notified that Friday at like 6:00pm. Needless to say, I immediately texted my supervisor at the bookstore and said effective immediately, I will only be available for work on the weekends.
Working that job showed me new doors of what really goes on behind the scenes at a university. Working there meant that I also had to dress professionally. Mind you, I just came from a bookstore job where some employees didn’t show back up because they didn’t pass the background check. So I learned quickly that I would have to wear the same things over and over again till I was able to buy more professional attire.
There’s a mall about a mile from the university. A fancy mall. Where rich people go. I would go there after work sometimes and just wonder around a swiftly learned that people judge you hard based on how you’re dress. i was still stuck in that mindset of “it’s what on the inside that counts”
Thinking back on it, I realized that I wanted to dress nicely because I liked getting treated nicely
