Pride Week & Work
Jun. 7th, 2006 04:55 pmLast night's Pride Week Interfaith Service went fabulously. The whole thing ran only 1h35, the MCC Combined Choir (Gospel + Standard Choirs) was fabulous, Katrina Messenger's message on the Four Archetypes of Spiritual Vocation was inspiring and on-target. If you go to read it, she has it posted to click through at points where she paused during her speech. Rev. Abena McCray of Unity Fellowship Church gave a rowsing, and entertaining Appeal, we'll see how deeply pepole dug shortly. The most surprising participant to me was the Right Reverend Father Rusty S. Smith, CSB of the Evangelical Anglican Church. (That title is Bishop for those unfamiliar with Anglican nomenclature.)
As for the work bit, in a daily team meeting the other day, my supervisor stated that he found my tevas, which i was wearing with jeans, inappropriate footwear. I challenged that on the basis that he did not find my female teammate's open-toed footwear offensive. Well, today he gathered us together and read us the Dress Code. With occassional exception, it turns out we may not only wear open-toed shoes, but also knee-lenght shorts. Heh.
