Hey people,

I had this job interview two days ago and well I usually get nervous about that stuff a little but this time it wasn't that bad. The thing with me is that I don't like to dress up too much I am more of a nice shoes, nice pants, white t shirt kind of guy at least when it comes to interviews. But I never actually just wore what I wanted wear. I always just conformed with nice shoes, nice pants, nice long sleeve presentable shirt etc. Well, I never feel comfortable with a long sleeve shirt for 1) because thats not me 2) thats conforming to something that makes me feel uncomfortable and thats just not healthy 3) for some reason the long sleeve shirt effects how i act probably because I fell uncomfortable, who knows?

So, I thought well I am just going to wear a white t-shirt,nice pants, nice shoes so i feel more comfortable in order for me to express myself better because for some reason a long sleeve shirt restricts me from expressing myself like I would like and I don't know why. So I wore what I wanted to wear and it was an awesome interview! I was cool calm and collected, I was presentable, held good conversations and stayed with the flow of social standards like a pro. haha
I got a call today for a second interview and I thought well this is what I should have done all along. I decided to wear the same type of clothes except this time with a short-sleeve button shirt you know steppin it up. Well, for some reason the shirt made me feel uncomfortable so I was thinking what in the world man? your not wearing a long sleeve shirt just take easy. Interview starts and then bam! I was uncomfortable and not that cool, calm and collected guy with just a t shirt. I was lacking in flowing with conversation and failed to pick up on social indicators etc. So, it didn't go so well for me but I guess I will see if they call back. As soon as got to my car I took off the button shirt and all the crap went away. I thought man I just need to do what is best for me and stop doing things for other people that make me feel uncomfortable.

I really don't know why this happens. What do you guys think?
