Lavender


Monday, May 1, 2006, May Day

It was a crisp sunny day in the Big Apple, spring in full bloom.

I chose to wear the color lavender as I went out to run some early morning errands. Making several stops along the way, I did a double take as many other people were also wearing the same color.

My final stop was at a Chase Bank, here in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, where I live. I walked over to my favorite teller, Irina, and was surprised to see that she was also dressed in lavender. Looking over at the other tellers, I noticed that they were also wearing the same color, just different styles.

"What's going on?" I asked. Chase employees are now required to dress in a lavender shirt or top which comes with the bank insignia on it. Irina mentioned that these 'uniforms' were more costly than her normal work clothes, now relegated to her closet.
