I was wearing an H scarf yesterday to work (sheath dress, blazer, heels, etc. - I'm an attorney) and as I walked by two men in the lobby of my building, one said to the other "She looks like a flight attendant."
I know it's minor compared to some of the other posts on this thread, but it really left me irked. I'm pretty sure scarves are not restricted to flight attendants, thanks.
I would love to turn around and say to them "I think you'll find the exits are here, here and here" with a slight departure from the usual hand gestures!
