My first day at work was Halloween. My boss asked some of us to dress up for the occasion: “Feel free to dress up if you’d like.” I went to work dressed as a bagel/avocado. It was hard not to miss me in a sea full grey-blue shirts. Talk about making a great first impression at work! By the end of the day, I had earned the reputation of being all juiced up for holidays.
