A You definitely don't have

neither do you have the right
to tie up their phone for the
evening in long conversa-
tions. But if your employers

Q. Fve read articiea about

feel, 1H inchea) and I long
for the willowy look. Den t
tell me I'm lucky because I
don’t have dale-height prob-
lems; just tell me how 1 can
leek taller.
A. If you won't change your
attitude about the value of
being a pretty petite, then
adopt the "think tall" atti-
tude about posture and ward-
robe. Tummy in, shoulders
back, chin up ... is model
posture that makes you look
taller. High heels, short hair
styles and clothes with ver-
tical lines also fool the eye
of the beholder into adding
inches to your height. Better
avoid two-piece outfit* and
ahirt-and-blouse combinations
which tend to cut your height
in half.
