On one hand, uniforms are neat: You don't have to spend an hour and then some trying to decide what to wear for work if it's casually dressed. You are given assigned clothes, and that's that. However, in my last job, uniforms were a pain to put on. Not only do you have to actually find something your size, you actually have to hope that your size is actually available. If it isn't, then you have no choice but to settle on something smaller or different which would make you stand out like hell.

In my area, I wasn't allowed to take any clothing home (because the clothing itself was rather expensive, I imagine), so that means I have to search through each and every article of clothing until I find something I like (especially hats), and make sure it fits correctly and it isnt too tight, or too loose, etc.

I really don't want to go through that kind of hassle, anymore. It's really annoying as crap.

Oh... Actually I thought they just called a tailor to make the uniforms based on your size then they'd take it off your pay. And you'd get to keep the uniform too. At least that's how they do it for my sis.
 
I was never into wearing uniforms, and I know it because at school I had to always wear one and it was never fun. Here it's compulsory to wear uniforms so I know the feelings.
 
Hey there my fellow supporters! I never really had the opportunity or chance for school uniforms, nor Workplace uniforms, so I can't say that I know how it is or anything. All I can contribute to the conversation is that I really like the idea and concept of uniforms, I guess it's because you don't have to worry about what to wear everyday, and save your normal clothing for home or social activities/situations /outings. I still wish to have an opportunity to try to wear them, hehe.


On the contrary, I am looking forward to the next Supporter Collaboration, so, anyone have any idea of when the next one is?


I call dibs on making the thread

I'm still deciding on a new theme. I wanted to have a certain background image, but I can't screencap an image of it so :(

God I'm so stupid I tried to reply, but instead I liked you post. Nice going genius -_- Lol anyways what I'm tring to say is if you have windows 8 you could use the Snipping Tool.

Problem is it's a screensaver. I don't think I can launch it without having the screensaver hide on me. Print Screen also doesn't work - It seems to only capture the first thing that's displayed after the screensaver disappears. I've considered setting it up in a virtual machine, but meh I'm not that fancy.

Oh well here's a solution:
1. Go to your Charms Menu
2. Search something like "Screen Saver" in the Search box
3. Click on "Change Screen Saver"
4. Click on "Preview"
5. Without moving the mouse press alt + PrtSc
6. Go to Paint and paste your screen saver
7. Don't praise me for looking on Google and not finding out the solution

Pressing Alt makes it go away before you can get to the PrtSc key :P I've already tried a lot of this stuff. I'm thinking it's some kind of incompatibility.

Hmm unless you have some custom screensaver, I could take a screenshot for you if you want me to.
 
I know that the high school I went to changed their uniform design when I entered the senior years, and seriously it took ages for everyone to get adjusted to the new look. And it all came with a new logo as well!
 
I don't think there's one yet but I totally wanna join in with next month's collab.
 
Haha, I think we can do one....next month? In a couple months? I shouldn't be too busy by then for me to actually organize one. :P
 
I need a new theme, so a collab would be nice, but I could also make my own new one, if it's too much trouble for now ^-^
 
Yeah, I appreciate that. I didn't mean to make it sound like I was rushing anyone. Not at all ^^

On a new topic, getting up at 5:30 is hard, and I have seven weeks to keep doing it. Its not fun.
 
Oh man, three people I work with were caught drunk at a bus stop at 6:00am last Thursday outside a bus stop, when they should have been preparing for work. Needless to say they weren't in Friday morning and consequently ended up skating on thin ice. They're lucky they only have a warning so far.
 
Drunk people? The only time I ever recall being approached by a drunk was one time when my dad and I were walking from our car to the entrance of a sports stadium. Darn tailgaters.
 
I'm not THAT violent and scary when I'm drunk.*

*you know what i don't even know how i act when i'm drunk. go ask someone that knows me well.
