^^^^ Agree.
I just saw a documentary on King George and Elizabeth. She was condemned by the media at first for wearing an outfit when visiting people who were bombed.
She replied, you would wear your Sunday best if you came to my home, why shouldn't I wear my Sunday best when visiting their home?
She saw it as not being flashy, but instead respectful to them.
I think that is how candidates should also see it. It is a sign of showing respect.
LFRY,
I have to ask, were the entire 90 for one SA, or was that for all of the SA's? I am going to assume it was for all SA's, because 90 candidates in one day for one SA is insane. Figure 15-20 minutes an interview, 8 hours in a day, that would equate to 30 candidates at best in the day.
I am also impressed that the Sen. was there. Typically, MOC's will do a meet and greet with candidates, but this was the 1st time I have read that the MOC was actually sitting in on the committee interviewing process for the candidates.
Interesting. I must say that had to be unnerving the Sen. was in the room for the interview.
Or did he just do the meet and greet at lunch, and did not sit in on any of the interviews?
