Spencer says he thinks this might be earlier; as he remembers you as having a much neater beard when he first knew you, roughly 1978. His earlier dealings with Honeywell Multics were with Paul Green.

Yeah, John cut his hair in '77, I think. This is what he looked like when I started working there in '72.

I've always believed in dressing up for an interview - suit, dress shirt, tie... If an office has a casual dress policy, usually the interviewer lets me know. But, I do believe they appreciate the effort I've made. Honestly, I feel more confident when I know I look good. My body type looks better when partly covered by a jacket.

In my last job in Minnesota, dress was extremely casual. By the end of 6 months, I was wearing t-shirts, shorts and tennis shoes to the office. When I met with my HOA boards, I still dressed up. I was told on several occasions that they appreciated it. Of course, now working with my nephew, there is no dress code. I wear shorts or sweat pants, tee shirts and tennis shoes. Is it silly of me to miss having the occasion to dress up? I have terrific ties:)

It's my understanding the office in Minnesota has changed the dress code to a more formal one. They were getting complaints from clients, though the community managers and community assistants had little to no contact at the office with their HOA boards.

Every year or so, I go to an event at which a suit is suitable. It makes me feel grown up. At my age (78), I find that consoling.

I have a casual every day type of career. If I could grow a beard, I'm sure I would.
