Cicero, I have always resented dress codes in underpaid positions. It is like saying "Not only am I not going to pay you much, but I expect you to spend more of the money I don't pay you than is reasonable on clothing to come here and work." When I was in the work world, I wore a lot of second hand "business" clothing. I started to look for ways to grunge it up, whilst adhering to the dress code. I have worked in few environments with dress codes, but those I have worked in have been irritating, to say the least. I like your crusty dockers comments. Heh. Can one even find Dockers new, anymore? I don't know because I have never bought them new.
