All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

No dress code in my world although I do wish the women who insist on strappy tanks and low rise jeans would at least wear a size that fits (instead of 2 sizes too small). For previews I tend to stick to slacks in case I need to climb a ladder before the house opens.

I guess I am required to wear a hardhat on occasion.

I'm really really wanting to know how ita's doctor appointment went.

It was at 11, right?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Got my fingers crossed for the head of ita and less hurtiness thereof.

Would any of you NOT work at a place because it had a dress code? What would be the breaking point in strictness?

Hah! Yes. But then, I bet I could argue that my eccentric wardrobe falls in line with any company dress code, because I doubt many companys have no petticoats or hats already written into the dress code. My shoes are close-toed, I don't wear t-shirts, and I always wear skirts and some manner of hosiery.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Preach it.

I wouldn't work at a place that demanded hose or skirts for women. As was said, that hints at other issues as well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Unless there are businesses whose dress codes prohibit attire that is "excessively awesome."

I'd be reluctant to work at a job where I had to wear a tie every day.

I did computer support at a bank for a little bit (thankfully not for too long). Many a tie was shredded by circuit boards.

Our wings are not tired.

This would be the reason I keep checking this thread too. They can take their time if they get it right.

While we have no dress code, the big boss has a thing about people wearing shorts and always sends out a reminder about this time for people nto to wear them. Some people still do.

Clothing runs the gamut in out office (there are about 400 people) from power suits to sweatshirts and jeans, but mostly we're business casual. It seems to depend on the position and the division you are in.

My technology headlines keep showing me Pac-Man articles. Huh? Pac-Man has been around so long that Pac-Man skeletons are showing up.
