Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, I wish my work was sane like that, Allyson. I'm in a fully taylored suit ('cos I have to have that, apparently) and I'm climbing under desks and floorboards cabling shit up. I just wreck everything I buy within a month.
No Sandles (men only) cracks me up.
Except for jeans on Fridays, I follow Kevin's company dress code. I think I'm the only one that regulary wears heels.

My prep school had rules like that. The fact that girls didn't have to wear socks, but guys did, was one of the biggest bones of contention.
I remember at school, girls weren't allowed to wear trousers. I've no idea why. They had to wear skirts.
If we wore pants, we had to wear a blazer, but no tie. This also was much disputed by the guys.
The girls at our school took up the trouser issue. And good on them.
My work's dress code includes things like:
2.2 Grade 3 and Above Employees For men - tailored suits to be worn so as above with tailored matching jackets. For women - as above with tailored jackets.
They don't have any grade 3 or above female employees. It's this massive company and there's not a single one. The ladies are all answering phones.
It's like being on the set of Mad Men. It's really disturbing.
We actually have a "business attire" dress code written by NY headquarters, but no one in SF follows it.
In fact, we just had a marketing guy out for meetings and the head of our office made a point of starting off by telling him that he really didn't need to be wearing a tie.
My attempts at cutting in by the ceiling using a sponge brush taped to a pole have failed. Back to drawing board....
I work with a guy like Tom's. I've never seen him not wearing shorts. And they are ratty ones at that.
The only times I wear jeans to work is when the weather sucks. The rest of the time, I'm in dressyish trousers and sweaters, tailored shirts or some other kind of dressy top. And usually heels. Except when I wear the sketchers.
I work in the NY Headquarters (not megan's), and we're on the formal end of business casual (no suits, but khakis would be inappropriate), but the other half of the staff in Smaller Midwestern City are pretty casual most of the time, because of course it's the CEO that cares what we wear, and she's here in NY. No denim and no flip-flops are the two things that come up the most in conversation.
