A few weeks back my job sent me to Atlanta on company business. I wanted to enjoy the opportunity as I do get to go to Atlanta all that often and I am huge Braves fan since way back. During my first day there I got headed over to my conference which is in the CDC. I dressed conservatively. Aline knee length skirt long sleeve blouse and jacket. I got over to the meeting at 7:30 as the meeting started at 8:00AM it was only about 100 feet from the parking garage to the building, however the time it look me to walk that distance it looked like I had showered with my clothes on. Since the meeting was at the CDC I ended up going through security which proved to be not a big deal. Metal detector however the security guard asked if I was nervous so I replied I was just really hot. She was like OH yeah it is hot at there. I was at the meeting by 7:50 got to chat with everyone for a short period and some people new about my new wardrobe others did not so so people were surprise and others indifferent. However I noticed that everyone else was dressed significantly more casual than I was. Two of the ladies I work with from other states were wearing sundresses. Samantha one of the ladies approached me and asked me if I was hot she explained that I looked like I was. I told her I thought this was going to be a professional meeting she said it was but people are still going to dress casual because of the heat. It just happened that the meeting was recorded so I got to look even stranger by not just being the only guy in a dress but also over dressed.
