Every now and then I think that I hate my job, but then I pause and look at my typical attire.

Jeans. T-shirt. In the winters, fuzzy hooded sweatshirt over the t-shirt. Last week was Hawaiian shirt competition, in which a coworker and I tried to outdo each other with progressively more annoying Hawaiian shirts.

I like casual dotcoms.
