Work Dress Code

You’re not supposed to judge people with the way they dress up but HALER!...the office is not a runway nor a night club nor the beach. Notwithstanding the fact that employees are allowed to wear casual attire and that there’s no strict dress code being followed… STILL wearing slutty attire in the office with belly buttons, coin slots (read: crack in the ass) and legs being displayed is completely mind-boggling to the delight of our male colleagues. Yes, we may be wearing slippers inside the work stations but it doesn’t follow that we should also wear our “pang-balay” or “pang-beach” to go with it. In my opinion, no matter how lenient this company is when it comes to dress code, it is but proper to define what is appropriate and what is not especially to the newbies who are often seen wearing "inappropriately". In the absence of a written policy, people tend to have their own definition and interpretation. I know this will be one lengthy and bloody discussion taking into consideration cultural diversity within our midst. But then again, it boils down to personal preferences when it comes to fashion or simply our manner of dressing. If one enjoys the attention while clad in a very skimpy short or skirt or a tube top to work, then by all means wear it. Just be prepared of the consequences that go with wearing indecent clothes --- raised eye-brows, a few side comments and lusty looks from the male employees. As for me, I still go for what’s appropriate and decent in my choices of work clothes.
