- Maybe I ought to lobby my boss for a larger salary so that I may sustain
- my position as the "resident leathered librarian" on my campus!
-
- It's a job, and someone has to fill those shoes.
-
- Do you realize how much its costs to keep a wardrobe up-to-date! Don't
- believe me if you don't want to, but just 2 weeks ago, people were talking
- about "mandatory dress codes" on LIBREF-L@KENTVM.BITNET (Reference Librarians'
- Discussion Group). So if your employer is going to institute a dress code,
- they ought to give you a clothing allowance, so that you can "look your very
- best".
-
- And those duds from H.I.M. or INTERNATIONAL MALE are not offered at a
- discount, even if you show your Queer Card.
-
- Who said that "membership has its privileges"?
-
- Was that the YUPPIE AMERICAN ACCESS CARD?
