Do you have anything like a sport jacket you can show up in and then just take off if it's too much?

No, no walk through on this job and I don't own a suit or anything like that.

It's a county job, I got the dress code but it was kind of vague. So I think it's going to be one of those you show up and they will tell ya what you can and can't wear.

I think you'll be just fine.

For a future closet item, it doesn't need to be a suit, I never wear those, but look around local thrift stores. I've found great sport jackets for dirt cheap, which is good because I always have to shorten the sleeves a bit, about $20. Anyway, a jacket like that can add to khakis and a button up without being stuffy. It's a nice option to have around sometimes, looks good with jeans and boots too.

Good luck on the job.

The khakis/slacks and polo shirt combo are fine at work.

I am the only butch at the office surrounded by a huge majority of the female species LOL

I second the thrift store! they always have such weird selections but i can usually find something with my kind of weird. i hate my body though so i'm always putting on layer after layer, even in the summer lol. lots of hoodies for this butch.

I hit up the thrift store but couldn't find anything in my size as far as pants go, I am in dire need of another pair of pants, for work.

They however had an awesome pair of old school Jordans in my size.
