"Eyes" you say....?



* imagines future "What BIG.....you have " thread *



W**F

This thread keeps reminding me of the Faces song You're So Rude.


My mum she likes you

She thinks you're swell

Got the makings of a dance hall girl


Your low cut frock and your bird's nest hair

Stiletto heels and the way that you swear

She said to take you back to see my folks again on Sunday


Why, it looks as though there's nobody in

They've all gone out to see my Auntie Renee

Don't you worry, you just come right in


I'm sure we'll pass the time til' they come home

Well, let me take your coat, kick off your shoes

Warm your toes, try the sofa


It's getting dark, we'll miss the late night bus, it's only eight?

Well, I'm not takin' any chances

What's that noise, why'd they come back so soon?


Straighten your dress you're really looking a mess

I'll wet my socks, pretend we just got caught in the rain

Oh, you're so rude.

There's a decent article in today's FT about women dressing for work. "Is low-cut too hot for the office" in the Dear Lucy column on page 12. I found it interesting. Unfortunately, I don't know my way around the FT Online or I would post a link. That's not helpful - sorry.

Katie,


I would continue to dress exactly as I pleased. Whatever you're wearing he's going to stare at you so you might as well get comfortable in your own skin and wear whatever you want (and is appropriate for your particular work environment). Don't get weired about it - there's no point.

Oh my dear Katie7283736. I sincerely hope this is not happening to you (though it looks as though it might be). "Staring" alone would make me feel awkward, but staring at my boobs would make me feel extremely uncomfortable to the extent that I would have to say something. Not an easy situation I would imagine - (men generally don't tend to look at me LOL!). However, as your boss is new, I would definitely call him aside and ask him if he is aware of his conduct. I would also alert him to the fact that his actions are making you feel uncomfortable (I am presuming you are not happy about the gawping). I think that the fact that he is new gives you a slight advantage - so nip it in the bud now.


Good luck. xx

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
