ThayNerd[TK] Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I started one of these a while back and since our membership has grown even larger in the last few months I thought I would start another thread. So... What do you have to wear when you aren't wearing stormtrooper armor? I work for the State of California and I am an analyst, so it’s pretty much dress shirt, a tie, and slacks everyday except Fridays. On those days we can dress casual, I usually wear cargos or jeans and a t-shirt, if I feel like dressing it up a bit I wear a polo shirt. So what does everyone else have to wear to their job?

Random1156 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 We use to wear shirts/ties/dress pants/dress shoes...but we're dealing with industrial sites that aren't very clean...after going through a couple pairs of outfits the first year we were testing printing ink plants, we changed the dress code... Now its jeans and polo shirts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkTrooper[TK] Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Button down shirt and jeans. I usually spend a good amount of time outside. I work for a heavy construction equipment dealership. Then I'm indoors doing the accounting. Sure beats what I used to wear everyday. I used to work for the IRS, professional attire mostly. I lost a lot of friends while working for the IRS but gained them all back when I quit. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehickey Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I work for myself from home making cartoon characters and selling them on my website: Cartoon Solutions so I can wear whatever I like. Mostly it's just t-shirt and shorts. Although I have the luxury of working in my pajamas, I've found that if I do wear them, I get far less done. So I wear 'big boy' clothes every day!

Hogan Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I work for the State of Alaska in a Youth Challenge Program for "at risk" teenagers. I have to wear black BDU pants and a red shirt with the Academy's logo on it. The shirt can either be a T-shirt or a polo. Wow, great options there.

Sgt Steve Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 From all the post here about everyone's job here, I've not seen one "Gigalo" to all the hard working office lady's! I must be the odd man out! O.K...no-duff, see my avtar, and that's pretty much what I wear. Simple yet very manly. Some of the army office's I have worked out of are near the down town business center, and my "red hat" is a big hit with the lady's! I may as well be a gigalo!
