There is no pride in the way some employees dress in todays workplace and have taken the term casual to mean just about anything short of wearing your pajamas to work, and I’m sure some people have tried that. And yet employers allow that. Nothing wrong with business casual in general but too many carry it to the extremes. Glad the necktie is pretty much no longer considered mandatory in most occupations, however some occupations still require it. But for the most part please shower, dress decent for the kind of work you do, and for Gods sake if you are a man get a decent haircut and shave, unless you happen to sport a groomed beard. Save your grungy look for the weekends, not the workplace! And don’t even get me started about some women, I’ll let a female comment on that.
