These are *librarians*, people. In *Ohio*. I once sat in a talk about the hiring process and heard a past job candidate disparaged because she came to an interview wearing blue nail polish. Granted, that was in Georgia, home of pink suits, but still. All this talk of young tattooed hipster librarians has probably not yet come to Cincinnati.

My first choice is Sony--I go in there on Monday.
My friend's been a script analyst for them for almost twenty years and they've been really good to her.

I was kind of shocked, but Athens has a huge frat-tastic Southern preppie streak as well as its indie side.

They're all confined to Northside. Them and their ironic trucker hats.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wouldn't wear blue nail polish to a job interview, myself.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I can't find a blue nail polish I like.
I realize this was not supposed to be the takeaway from this conversation, but I have my limits.
Anyway, msbelle, after hearing more about your workplace in person, I have EVEN MOR sympathy for what you're dealing with. Sucks, man.

I never wore blue nail polish to a job interview when I was looking.
I had my yearly review it was mostly good news. Mostly.
Basically my manager only had good stuff to say, but I would have liked to get a point higher on a rating, but my manager said she couldn't get it for me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
No blue nail polish to interviews. Noted. Not that I have worn any nail polish at all in quite a while, but that could change at any time.
