Your comment about wearing the ballgown struck me.<br /><br />When I worked for IBM in NYC, our young boss– a woman– objected to the pantsuit one of my colleagues wore, the tunic over trousers type. Patricia stepped into the restroom. Moments later she reappeared wearing just the tunic and pantyhose. That satisfied our boss. Did I mention our manager was a lady?<br /><br />Best of well-deserved luck with the book!Leigh Lundinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921276795499571578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-41882956201781378022018-01-23T13:06:28.227-05:002018-01-23T13:06:28.227-05:00Eve Fisher: Hallie Ephron insisted on the wound.
