edited September 26 in Success Stories
Our HR department decided to have another "Fun Friday" event today and to celebrate Easter they decided to do an egg toss challenge.
As part of the rules they decided that we could dress up and got extra points for our outfits. I had been trying on some old clothes and found out that some of my nice dress shirts started fitting me again (YAY!) so I decided to wear a shirt and tie with slacks.

I got to work in my normal attire and right before the challenge I changed. Well as I was coming out of my office one of my female coworkers made the comment "Wow how much weight have you lost? you look goo" I must admit that I blushed a little and it felt good.

So I go outside to get ready and several of my coworkers made similar comments (I guess I should wear a tie more often) needless to say I was very happy and it just made my day.

As an aside my partner and I came in second place with a toss of just over 20 feet, but we got to pelt one of the vice presidents with eggs for charity.

Thank you all for reading my little rave here and have a great weekend.
Martin

    Thanks everyone.
    I should have taken some pictures before i went out there. I got pelted with a few eggs myself so I had to change.
    This has inspired me though to wear some of my nicer clothes from time to time and to post some half way pictures.

    Have a great weekend everyone
