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.

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.

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

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.

How can Marcel defeat Ilan? They're in the same season!

That was what was giving her the agita.

Aw.

Word. Anything strapless is not office attire.

Well, if your office is a street corner...

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

Long-sleeve shirts. I could deal with business casual (and do, whenever meeting with clients), or even dress pants/shoes and short sleeve dress shirts. But if you require long sleeves and ties you obviously don't need my services that badly.

My office is pretty casual if we don't have clients scheduled to drop by. I wear jeans and button shirts, but some folks go as casual as a sweats or shorts (which I don't feel comfortable in unless it's a weekend, in which case they should just be thankful I'm not in my underwear).

I would definitely turn down a job for a restrictive dress code. But then, half the time I work in my pjs, and the rest of the time I wear black band t-shirts. And I think I'd fit in better if I dyed my hair green. So I'm pretty lucky. Admittedly I do have to conservative up for fundraising, but that mostly means lots of nice clean line linen dresses, which I buy for 50 cents at the thrift shop.

Help me, Hivemind: what's another word for "unconfigure"?
