You know what would be kind of scary? If you happened to step into an elevator on your way to lunch and standing there was none other than the managing partner -- i.e. the "most important" big shot VIP in the whole office. Especially if he were wearing a full suit, and standing with two other big-shots wearing suits, and meanwhile you were wearing a pink sweater with a colorful scarf and your purple bus shoes (i.e. the shoes that you wear when walking to and from the bus because they're comfortable, even if not particularly professional or flattering, but it's okay because you have cuter, more painful shoes in your bag that you fully intend to change into before entering the office), and your hair was extra wild and curly due to the fact that you slept in late and were too lazy to make it neat, because you figured nobody would see you today anyway, seeing as how everybody you are assigned to work with is out of the office at a client site, which is why you made sure to book a cubicle for the day so you could take full advantage of the opportunity to remain hidden and look sloppy. BUT MAYBE you weren't expecting to run into any big shots in the elevator.
Yeah... that would be intimidating.

The sentence in the middle of that paragraph was impressively long.
