Half of women sexually harassed at work

[fool]

yep but why not wear shorts and t-shirt to work, seriously does it matter?? Who says a shirt & tie is professional? What if my shirt is very thin and you can see my nipples through it.

I'm wearing shorts right now with a t-shirt and no socks, I'm also being incredibly professional unless you count this break to post this lost hope of a comment.

I wear jeans and a t-shirt. Usually I find strong technical teams don't care, whilst those who rely on soft skills do.

Inappropriate attire for a trainer

[Halo Jones]

My professional attire is steel toe boots, long socks with trousers tucked in, gloves, goggles, HiVi vest, and hardhat.

& yes before you ask trousers & blouse under that.

As ever all people should dress appropriately for the work environment.

Oh & yes I have a tramp stamp – which in true nerd fashion is a WH40K Aquila, but no, I do not engage in high risk behaviour, illegal substance abuse and sexual promiscuity

Just to cheer you up - when we are increasing our velocity using the information radiator we are all just in jeans and and t-shirts

“Tramp Stamp” is a derogatory term referring to a tattoo which a women places on her lower back .. there have been sociological studies done by the American Psychological Association, Federal Bureau of Prisons, and other demographic researchers showing strong correlative evidence associating tattoos with high risk behavior, illegal substance abuse and sexual promiscuity."

Or 'people who have learned how to enjoy life' as we like to call them.

It's a bit too warm to wear knee high high heel boots.

Unfortunately male managers can't pull her a side as they will be done for sexual harassment so it's normally left to some older female, who then gets called an old cow.

It's best to have a good male to female ratio in the office as then there is sufficient peer pressure from both sexes to get people to dress appropriately.

With respect Sue (I don't know why I put that, as I find it such an annoying phrase), that's a load of crap.


I've known of two male managers having spoken to females colleagues (two different clientcos) about unprofessional dress at work. It was most certainly not taken as harassment, it was taken as a manager enforcing the policies of the company.

When I chose my contracts, after rate and location, the third parameter in the decision making is the number of young, innapropriately dressed women there are in the office.

Get's me up in the mornings.
