NATIONAL WEAR PAJAMAS TO WORK DAY

Sponsored by TOP Agency

When it comes to work attire most days you'll be find me wearing a suit. With all the courthouses in Michigan essentially shutdown due to the pandemic though, I've essentially become unemployed for the time being as a criminal defense attorney. That being said there are still some loose ends on client matters that I'm handling via video conferences.

You know what the nice thing about video conferences are? The people on them only see you for the most part from the waist up. So while you may have a suit coat and tie on up top no one will know if you are wearing comfy pajamas bottoms instead of starchy slacks.

Today is National Wear Pajamas to Work Day and since there were a few court cases on my day's docket I decided to participate in this ad hoc holiday. So I was rocking my Star Wars pjs while on Zoom handling a probate guardianship hearing and criminal sentencing today. Of course only you and I know that!
