    “You will never have a job where you can wear comfortable clothes”

    To this day that’s been wrong about 99% of my working life

      we had to put signs up around one office I worked at warning when clients would be dropping by, because half of the back office worked in pajamas most days

        And these days, the customers are just as likely to be casual.

            That sucks. People expect their engineer to look sort of alive but thankfully they’re ok with disappointment in that regard. Other than that my career has had everything from “wear your Union tshirt when you think the boss is gonna be mad at you” to “why do you expect me to wear these shoes on a factory floor” to “Japanese companies wear uniforms, get over it”. Seriously hated having to wear flats instead of my boots
