[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 237959, member: 27"] It's only been two weeks and the dress code seems to be hitting the skids. I am taking notes--literally writing it down--so that when someone in management decides to say anything to me, I'll be able to shovel it right back at them. As for the bow ties, I knew that dog was not gonna hunt--I have yet to see a single one. I bet this will all go away by November. One of our managers is a bit...um, portly? Porky? Husky?? Well, whatever you want to call it, he refuses to tuck his shirt in. I don't blame him--I mean, I'm not exactly skin and bones myself and know what looks good or bad. But we hate that big ol' tub-o'-guts so if we can use his non-compliance as our ticket out of dressing like penguins, all the better. I went out and spent $95 on some white shirts that were 1) breathable and comfortable and 2) long enough to tuck in comfortably, plus undershirts that I would NEVER wear otherwise in this Florida heat. If they want to bitch and moan about my denim or my sneakers, then they should enforce all the details of the dress code equally on themselves as well as the serfs. But I haven't heard a peep. Business Casual was always okay before, and of all the problems this company has, our sartorial choices is NOT one of them. [/QUOTE]
