Job Interviews in a dress

Even though I have a full time job I decided to look for a part time job to earn some extra money, and constructive use of my free time.  I have applied at roughly a dozen or so stores and hotels.  I have had two interviews.  The first interview was at Chicos in OKC.  When I arrived the manager was professional however she was uneasy with me in a dress. We went in the back she asked me questions that were pertinent and knowledge based we share out views on loss and shrinkage as well as good customer service.  We had a common bond on our view on loss and customer service. We interviewed and talk for about 1 hour.  She explained how she thought I would fit in well however she didnt have any positions at the time for me.  Inronically 4 weeks later she is still looking for help.

The second interview was at Dress Barn in OKC, the interview was with the training manager. She talked to me about 15 minutes maybe less she told me I was unqualified to work as a sales associate or sales support.  But she was quick to add the wanted my business just not my employment.

I have subsequently applied at Soma, Maidenform, and Hanes.  I was instructed that they didnt believe a male would be comfortable talking about and selling lingerie.  I advised them that they obviously didnt notice that I was wearing lingerie.  As a wearer of bras and panties I have became knowledgeable onthe subject.  However they advised to keep looking so the search continues.  

Dinner and a Movie

Last Friday went I to Dinner with my friends and their significant others.  Chris is getting married so Terry and his wife, Josh and his girlfriend, Chris and Christy, and I all went out to dinner at Charlestons. 

Before heading to dinner, I needed to change so I brought my clothes with me and changed at work.  I had bought a new dress and was looking forward to wearing it.  As I was changing I notices a tear along the seam in the back of the dress.  I was wearing a dress so it wasnt that big of a deal.  I called Dress Barn wear I bought and thought I would swing by and exchange it for the same dress.  However, when I got there there didnt have that dress in my size any longer.  So I went through picked out two other dresses and went on my way. 

Luckily I was only a few minutes late to dinner and of course my friends didnt let me live it down.  Terry was razzing me stating I was always the first one there and on time.  All of a sudden give him boobs and a dress and he is running late.  I was like yes Terry boobs make people run late. 

Dinner was wonderful we always have a great time.  We have some drinks joke with each other and enjoy each others company.  Dinner got done around 9 as Terry and Jennifer needed to get home to their kids.  Josh and his girlfriend went on to some dance clubs. 

I had no interest in going so I decided to catch a movie as my wife wouldnt be home till after 11.  I headed over to Penn Square AMC Theatres to catch a movie.  Getting to the mall as they were closing there were not alot of people at the mall.  I went in and saw 300 rise of an Empire in 3D.  It misses some plot however it is a good movie and in 3D it is amazing.

Buying H-Posts and Corner Posts

Living on a farm I am always fixing fence or moving fence or building new fence.  This week like all other weeks is no different.  I am building a new property line fence on my south side as such I decided to purchase two corner posts and a couple of h posts to have just in case. 

Yesterday I decided to go and pick them up when I got off work, I called to make sure they were there, at that time I asked if anyone was going to be able to assist in the loading of the posts.  The shop advised that customers loaded there own posts.  When I arrive to pick them up I just got off work so I was still in a dress.  A knee length blue wrap dress, upon my arrival they were very friendly and advised me where the posts were.  They then advised that they would help load as they did not think I was going to be able to load them.  Normally I would take the help, however instead I decided to load them my self.

So far I have been amazed how people treat you differently based on how you are dressed,  In jeans and a tshirt you can load your posts.  In a dress suddenly you are to weak to do mans work.  Somehow we have this notion that what you wear defines who you are.  That is a terrible shame.

Out to Movie

Living on a farm the only times I really get to go out is on Fridays so Friday two weeks ago I decided to go out.  When I got off work I put of my push up bra and my favorite blue dress and went out on the town. 

My first stop was at Lane Bryant as I had received a Lane Bryant gift card for Christmas and hadnt used it I was able to go there when they had 70% of clearance I was able to buy two pairs of pants and a top for less than $20.  Great deal.

After leaving Lane Bryant I decided to go catch a movie, Non-Stop had just came out so that seemed like a good movie.  The theatre was moderately busy however I had no problems I bought my ticket and while I got a few looks everyone overall either ignored me or was nice to me.

The movie was OK not great and after the movie I stopped by the Rockaway taverns for some adult beverages.  Overall positive experience I knew the bar tender there however I wasnt expected to run into anyone I knew.  However,  I ran into one of the ladies I work with she was polite.  SHe njoyed her beverages and I enjoyed mine and went on about our evening

Road Trip

On friday I go off early so I used this opportunity to take a road trip.  I ended up going to Wichita Kansas.  I know everything is think how exciting wichita.  However I was going up there to see my cousins new baby and go to the cabelas.  The trip was a great trip no complaints I did see a few people who looked at me cross eyed or like I was alittle strange.  My cousins husband works in Wichita but they actually live north of there.  So I asked him where he wanted to meet me when he got off of work so I could then follow him to his house.  There was a Twin peaks and Hooters by his job Hooters was closer so I ended up hanging out there for 90 minutes waiting on Jason.  The greater was unsure how to treat me so she kind of ignored me and took a complasant approach.  However one of the waitresses was especially kind she was not my waitress.  She walked by and let me know that my dress had been caught over the chair and I was exposing my rear.  After being embarassed I corrected the dress and waited for Jason. When he got off work he met me there he was taken aback by the fact I was in a dress he had never seen me like that before.  So we shot the breeze for about 20 minutes and headed out to his house.  When we got to his house my cousin hadnt seen me sinceI started wearing dresses so she was taken aback by that I was wearing a dress.  She initially was shocked and she then teased me about how short it was I explained that it went to just above the knee however when I say down at Hooters I had mooned the restaurant.  She got a kick out of that.  I met there new baby such a darling and then I subsequently went on to Cabelas i Cabelas I was treated Okay not great but OK I have been treated better and worse. 

Sunday Dinner

Saturday night out with the guys one of my friends Terry called his wife and asked her if she wanted me to still come to their daughters brithday party the next sautrday  She was like I better come over and bring a good gift. I asked her about the dress. She asked me if I wanted to come over Sunday after church for dinner. I then reminded her about the dress, she stated that I should bring more clothes with me because the boys will want to play football.  So Sunday around 3 I drove over to Terry and Jennifers house.  They have a nice house in Edmond.  After getting their I realized that alot of her family was going to be their her sister and her two boys her parents and their 3 kids.  I was unsure about the welcome but Jennifer met me in the yard told me she appreciated me not looking like a hooker she thought it was going to be some crude joke I told her I was serious.  We went in and we met all of her family they were nice they were taken aback by me in a dress but were warming up to me as they got to know me.  She asked me if I brought any other clothes for football I did I brought along some shorts and a tshirt.  I brought a sports bra to keep the breasts in while I played.  The it was 3 on 3 terry and his two nephews again me and his two sons.  It was a blast we won 5 to 4 or 35-28 depending on how you keep score.  As we were sitting around outside terry told me they had so much fun he had forgotten about the boobs and dress that initially freaked him out.  After the rest the boys talked into one more game this time we changed up players and it ended in a 3-3 tie.   After that we all went back inside I was sweaty head to toe and went in and changed.  Jen asked me if I wanted help with make up I thanked her buy told her at this time I am not trying to pass as a woman so I dont need make up.  So I changed back into the dress and we had dinner.  The ham the chicken and dumplings everything great.  After dinner the boys wanted to go out and play another game but it was getting dark and jennifer reminded them that even boys dont get to play football in dresses.  I initally stood my ground and asked her who she was talking to jokingly she then asked me if I wanted one of the boys to see up my dress when they tackle me or ruin the dress I was joking with her but agreed I ended by playing the wii with their daughter.  I asked her if it was okay that I go to her party in a dress.  She asked me if I was going to dress as a princess I told her probably not she asked me pretty pretty please I told her I would look into it but no promises.  She then told her mom I was going to dress as a princess.  Jen was like really?  I said I would look into it I wanted to make sure she was okay with me in a dress and now apparently she wants me dressing like a princess.  I told her I never dressed as a princess so in my year of change it might be a good change.  So monday I called around trying to find a princess dress who knew this was going to back fire. 

Night Out with the guys

Last saturday I got a called from from of my friends Justin he asked me if wanted to go out with the boys as they were getting together I stated sure. So we all went out to Twin Peaks in OKC to watch some basketball and have some beers. My friends had not seen me since i started my quest for a year in dresses so when I showed up in a dress they were taken by surprise. The dress was just a normal knee length dress sleeveless nothing special. After the good goshing or ribbing they gave me we all got to sit around and enjoy ourselves.

 One of my friends Josh kept staring at my chest so I kept saying Josh my eyes are up here. The reason we got together was Chris is getting married his girlfriend happen to work their at Twin Peaks. so after she (Christy) got off she joined us.  I know Chris and Christy getting married how adorable.  We had a fun time, Christy was like heah can I ask you a personal question I was like okay. She was like you are a guy right I said yes she said you are straight I said yes. I then chimed in and said she couldnt leave Josh for me. Josh was like whatever. She stated you are wearing a bra right I was like yes. She ask if I was wearing panties I asked her if she was, she told me that was kind of personal I reminded her she just asked me she told me she was wearing panties I told her Me Too. Overall the night was funny out of all my friends I was the most boring and had the least to talk about apparently that has changed. Terry one of my responsible friends you wife kids the American Dream. He was giving me crap he asked me if I was coming over to his daughers birthday party on Saturday she is turning 6. I told him I could but I wasnt sure how his wife would take the whole dress thing. Terry called his wife and she was like I better come over and bring a good gift. I asked her about the dress.  She said she thought her daughter would get a kick out of it.  She asked me if  I wanted to come over Sunday after church for dinner.  I then reminded her about the dress, she stated that I should bring more clothes with me because the boys will want to play football.  I told her I wouldnt and so I guess I am going to a 6 year old girls birthday party next saturday.
