This past weekend myself and another intern for the FM Jets, decided to take a road trip to Bismark and watch the Jets take on their arch rivals. Being an intern for the Jets makes you appreciate being able to be on the inside of the operations. Of course you always think that the organization you work for has the "BEST" of everything, but in this case, I think that we do.
In my few months of being an intern, I have learned how to 'dress to impress' to represent the organization in a positive manner. It is one thing to dress crazy for 80's night and really get into it, but on the other hand, dressing professionally on non-theme nights is also appropriate. However, the Bismark interns were not representing their organization in a positive matter...from my perception.
I didn't know hooker boots were appropriate to wear in front of hockey fans. One of the interns was wearing high black heeled boots with a very short skirt of some sort, but I couldn't see it, since she wore her coat the whole time. It is one thing to have plans for after you are done working, but leave some clothes to change into in your car. Another intern was wearing sandals. Come on. First of all, it is the middle of winter and second it's a hockey game....with ICE!
Maybe I'm old fashioned already and expect to see suits or pants worn to a hockey game. Did I miss the memo?? I was not impressed by any means on the way the people of the organization represented their team. As an outsider, I left the rink feeling like they didn't have as much of a professional feel as the Fargo Moorhead team did. Maybe I'm biased because I work for the opposing team, but represent you team in a professional and tasteful manner. Please!
