What should I wear ?
I am a 29 year old female and I got a new job . I Start working at the Library tomorrow morning. I am nervous and excited. I waa just wondering what should I wear on my first day. They told me to dress like I was going to church on a Wednesday night . I went and bought some jeans with rhinestones on the back of them and a black sweatshirt with a bible verse on the front . Is this appropriate?

They should have clarified by giving examples because their idea of what to wear to church may be different from yours. For all I know, it may vary a little between libraries depending on who is in charge. When I used to work in a large office building, their dress code was no jeans at all, dress slacks, and no tee shirts or sweat shirts except for casual Friday and even then there was a dress code, no writing on the tee and no company ads, just plain tees.
If this library is a church library, a bible verse may be okay but if a public one, with no many non Christian faiths and believers who may use the library, they could be offended. I personally feel people are offended too easily but its a new job. The clothes though don't have to be new, just clean, no holes, and so second hand will also do. You might be able to use your current wardrobe but it may be too casual for their liking. If at all possible, call and ask what kinds of clothes to wear for the job and let them know what you would choose to wear and find out if thats appropriate. If you are too scared to ask, then bring a blouse and dress slacks along and if someone tells you what you're wearing is not with the dress code, go to your car get the other clothes and change in the restroom. I do not recall any library personel wearing jeans or sweattops at my local library. Just dress slacks, nice tops or blouse and blazer. But yours may be different. So its best to ask for some examples and let them know what you are thinking of wearing and if that would meet their dress code.
