Funny

A coworker is relaying a story to me, a story that goes like this:

A site leader at another site had noticed the more relaxed attire being worn by folks at the office, and wanted to remind people that we are currently "Business Casual" (i.e. No Jeans, except on Fridays or before a holiday or a half day).

So he chose to walk up to a random employee wearing jeans, and gently reminded him of the dress policy.

The random employee, I'm quite certain, looked at said site leader in disbelief, and said "fuck you! You just laid me off!"

Love it!

The site leader then goes to complain to HR, but immediately does a uturn when hitting the HR office - the HR site lead is wearing jeans herself!

I never did understand this casual Friday thing. I mean, what,really, is the point? Jeans?

Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin' here no more
You done gone and laid me off
So goodbye, fu** you, I'm out the door

Don't you try to stand in my way
'Cuz I'll knock you to the floor

Take your job and shove it
Since you don't want me here no more

I see people in my office show up in sweats or shorts on Friday, which I think is going too far.

As for myself, I think of Thursdays as Fridays so the office is most likely to see me in a nice sweatshirt, nice jeans, and my new balance!
