I also keep a few mugs on my desk at work and I feel safe with them there. On occasions, I wear a Vintage Hawaiian shirt to work and people harass me about it soo much, so I feel you pain spork. People tell me that they can't take me serious when I'm dressed like that. Oh well...

Tikitrevor,
A friend brought his new girlfriend over to my place for the first time.

First she tells me how much she hates some of the booze in my liquor cabinet, then she tells me that she would never hire anyone that wore a tropical shirt to an interview. Regardless of their resume or attitude. She was pretty much hacking all things I hold dear to bits. And I don't even know the gal.

I think I'll invite her to the grand opening of the Huki Lounge, whenever that happens. I'd rather get her pissed off mai tais than banish her forever.

Moral of the story: people will always look at you funny. don't sweat the petty bits, and don't pet the sweaty bits.

Wear that shirt proudly, and display those mugs. I do it too! We're what makes this world a more colourful place to be! You should see the looks I get when I wear my most colourful shirt in the middle of a Canadian winter!
