Uniform

The current workplace (and I really must think up a name for it at some point) is having a ‘dress-down’ day today, with payments for it going to cockbag Children in Need.

A number of the people in the office were really excited about being allowed to dress down, because even the “smart casual” dresscode is supposedly ‘boring’ in their eyes.

What’s amused me though is that they actually all look a lot more individual in the usual work clothes than they do on ‘dress-down’ day, when they are all in jeans, and most of the girls are wearing sodding Ugg boots.

‘Dress down Friday’ also left me cold. Once, I dared to wear shirt & tie on a Friday at work.

‘Do you have a customer meeting ?’
‘No’.
‘Why are you wearing a tie then ?’
‘A uniform on a Friday is still a uniform.’

Totally.

It just repeatedly amuses me that people look more uniform when not in a uniform. People are strange.

Same here today. I’m about the only person in the office who has managed to dress down without wearing jeans.
