Please Note:1. They are at conference, not generally a dress up event2. Consider what librarians are paid – would you take $30k/year with a Masters degree?3. Consider the dress of librarians profession peers – nurses et. al.4. Librarians work in a less than pristine environment – books are not antiseptic
To be fair, if you hadn't seen the word "Librarians" plastered all over this story, I think you would have thought they were either primary school teachers or civil servants. I think it's just a particular generation and lifestyle-type of women who dress like this, rather than a profession. That being said, doesn't help much that 90% of the library profession fits said generation and lifestyle-type...
The three above look, stunned,bemused and embarrassed! I knew a really sexy librarian once, well she was breathing!;-)Seriously, they would look better wearing a uniform, some vibrant colour like chocolate brown like the Corrections department. At present this lot look like Helon Earth Clones. Before the stereotypical view of Librarians change, they must change. A woman can look smart, without being 'too out front'.The three above caught in the act almost by this 'stunner' of an advert for Librarians, Jo and Percy are totally correct. They have proved their point admirably. They are dowdy,drab and wouldn't rate a second look. Shame really, they are breathing are they? ;-)
