 CS> Hehe so did the bossman at work.  You just have to get past being
 CS> scared and sell yourself.  Military after 26 years with no interviews,
 CS> are not used to that.

I have not had a job interview for more than 45 years.  I can imagine it
would be tough to get in the right frame of mind.  OTOH, you have had
promotion boards and the like -- which can be pretty scary.

 CS> Well, today I clothes shopped like a banshee on speed.  Got 2 really
 CS> nice outfits with a skirt to match both and the jackets match other
 CS> things I have handy that are suitable for a 'suit and tie, girls style'
 CS> job.  Heheh even got me a nice watch instead of the neon-blue and pink
 CS> sports watch (wink, took it off for the interview).  I'm that tiny 5ft1
 CS> sort where even in petite, we end up on sale so got 2 really nice suits
 CS> that list price at 70$ and 99$ respectively for 25$ each.

Welcome to the civilian world -- what should I wear today:-}}
