Travis and Taylor

[Anonymous]

They just seem like two people who really like each other and in the early stages of relationship. They probably also both like dating someone who is just as driven and understands the demands of their jobs.

She may be smart but she isn’t in charge of the business.

She’s the moneymaker, she can dress however she wants.

That is her showing her privilege due to wealth. It isn’t very empathetic to her team. Why doesn’t she direct them to have a company culture to dress down as do many startups?
She is providing a product that is well marketed and allows her team to develop more products and make lots of money.
The meeting told the story: defend her choices if you want. It made me understand the boss girl mantel she has been give isnt the real story. YMMV

She is their employer; she does not need to impress them by dressing a certain way. They have the jobs that they have because she exists and puts in the work. But I love that you think she needs to show them more respect by dressing in a way that some rando deems appropriate.

All you are doing is saying she has more power and should be able to tromp on the people who work for her by not following the workplace culture norms everyone else in the meeting clearly followed.

That isn’t something a strong boss would do. She isn’t a girl boss. She is talent and a commodity for her business people to promote. They do a good job!

Dressing casually for a meeting is not “tromping on the people who work for her”, no matter how desperately you wish otherwise.

I hate the way both of them dress! Travis looks like she’s trying so hard!

He styles himself in the manner that many NFL players do - with a lot of swag:

Yes, and they both were guided by parents who were savvy. Taylor Swift, the Kardashians, the Kelce Brothers, Pippa and Kate Middleton--all had very savvy mothers.

I read that Travis struggled academically in HS and college.

Are you the poster who brings up this scene repeatedly? Because Mark Zuckerberg wears the same sad t-shirt every day (but we call that savvy so he doesn't have to make decisions about clothing and can focus on Business!). Same with Steve Jobs announcing global product launches in a pair of jeans. (He was all about Business!). Now here comes a woman in her late-20s, who's a celebrity entertainer, into a business meeting and she's not wearing sensible shoes and a suit ... so juvenile?! How about stop measuring her differently because she's a woman who conducts herself in a way you personally don't like.

Steve Jobs was not a good businessman. Apple died and had to be resurrected by Microsoft. He was a great computer guy but crazy and not business smart.
Mark Z lets his employees dress that way too.
I’m saying her dressing like that shows who makes the business decisions. She isn’t a boss girl. She is a performer and she will post on social to make people buy cardigans or towels or whatever but that doesn’t mean it was her idea and designs. Why does that bother you to point out? She can be a great talent and not run the business. It is her team that does that. Do you really think she is running the company while planning her tours?

I work in a science field (statistics ) and when we have meetings there are always 5-10 people in suits and 1 dressed in some off beat/odd way.

After introductions we turn to the one guy and say “so you must have all the answers, let’s talk”.

Then he explains the science, we fix it and the suits pat themselves on the back.

She employs the team and is their boss. Maybe she’s not “boss girl” cause she may delegate the business side and PR to professionals in those fields. However, she certainly has input on every decision. She doesn’t promote a cardigan unless she agrees.

Define 'business decisions'.

Sure she has people to invest her money and plan logistics and make calls and strategies, but she is definitely in charge of her 'business'.
