Work Apparel?

One of the people at my table seems to be taking our casual dress code a little lightly. He just started coming back into the office and every day his shirt seems to be getting a bit smaller and smaller. He may have shrank all his clothes during Covid or he might have gained a few. He also sometimes wears a jean jacket which is really not business casual. How do I tell him that it may be better to be more work appropriate and presentable?


PS: I like jean jackets but when you walk around the office looking like you're from the Outsiders its a bad look

I never cease to be amazed by how many people that ended up stars were cast in that movie. It's wild.


This picture doesn't even include people like Tom Cruise and Emilio Estevez.

I'm pretty sure that's Tommy on the far left, looks like he's trying to pass a fart.ย

Oh yeah, you're definitely right. About it being Tommy and it looking like he's passing a fart, but to be honest it looks like all of their "tough" faces are more like fart faces. Just different types.

Is it really your job to get people to abide by the dress code? This seems like it would create unnecessary drama. I'd stay out of it

My question if for the WFH people:ย  Can I stop wearing a fucking collared shirt for my client meetings and just start rocking a t-shirt?ย  I'd really feel more comfortable and I think dress codes are bullshit anyway, why don't we ever (as a society) cancel stupid shit like dress codes?ย  'gives a fuck what you're wearing you should dress your personality and be YOU.ย

Depends who you're selling to. Finance/legal/C-Suite I would not show up in a t shirt. IT? Probably fine.ย

What others wear to the office doesn't matter to me so long as it has no hate speech or symbols on it. If HR has a problem then they can deal with it, but I know I'm not sticking my nose where it doesn't belong.

Show up in the same style outfits he's wearing and say, "wow, [insert boss' name here] said I look like shit today and need to go home. That's too bad as I really liked this jean jacket."ย 

Maybe he will get the hint.ย

I think super casual may be wrong, but also super formal may not be the best for all the scenarios, but that's the tricky part, to know when, now if you wanna have that chat with someone approach as a friend so they not feel attackedย

If it doesnโ€™t bother HR, Iโ€™d skip on commenting on it altogether. Other peopleโ€™s choices should only bother us if they directly interfere with our quality of life.ย

Dress according to your client base, industry, and community.ย  The proof is in the results.ย  IF they are putting up scoreboard, leave them the f alone.

Ha! Honestly, is he meeting with clients? Cause if not, I'd say to cut him some slack. But if he's meeting with clients (IRL or on Zoom, whatever) then it's fair to lightheartedly mention it.
