Serious question for Hawk...

at least you get to wear a skirt! the only difference for me is if i wear a polo or a button up.

and women get to wear open toed shoes and still look professional. y'all definitely got the good side of that double standard.

you go put on panty hoes with pumps and a pencil skirt that's so skinny you can't walk in it then come back to me.

did the skirt thing yesterday, wearing pants today, gotta switch it up

sounds like you are trying to move up the ladder.

girls i'm talking about wear skirts that aren't like you describe, no hose in spring and summer, and shoes that are very open. some even wear capri pants. those are just shorts that pass the knee!!

The shorter the skirt the better... I'm just sayin'.

I LOVE being able to dress however I want for work... much more comfortable.

Yeah, ummm...movin up the ladder here would probably involve me dressing more like a man based on my boss' preferences.

No hose in the spring/summer is really a preference. I normally don't do it, but some women wear hoes year round.

The only open shoes I wear are pumps that have an open toe, no crazy platform sandals or anything, those I wear outside the office.

If the girls you are taking about aren't wearing the skirts I describe, they aren't dressing professionally. This is a professional pencil skirt:

not as comfortable as it looks. especially when I have to get into my SUV every morning without ripping the back of it.

Daily work uniform, Tshirt, shorts, and flip-flops. Comfort is good.

and put me down for the less clothes the better. (at least when it comes to womenz)

[Kettle]

ladies here wear very strappy flats in the summer. their skirts are long as the pencil ones(sexy btw), but much more comfy looking. loose, but nice looking. And again, many just wear capris. one girl in my last location literally wore them every day. i just want to wear some flip flops honestly. khaki shorts would be nice too though.

also, the correct answer to the initial question was taun-tauns.

Yeah, the strappy thing is something I would do on like a Friday, but they wouldn't be flats.

I have one pair of capris, but they are business pants material, so I just wear those with some pumps.

Its mainly either nice business slacks, or a skirt, and jeans on Fridays.

[Kettle]

i don't even get jeans on friday any more cuz i'm in a building that the company gives tours of when customers come in. i'm dressed for church every day of the week.

Yes, we southerners prefer the less clothes over more.

If you don't like the hot/humid, I wouldn't recommend coming to Charlotte in the summer.

oh, I prefer the less over more thought too...and screw ya...I'm cancelling my trip and not coming...thanks alot!!!!!

Houston/New Orleans...simply the two worst places I've ever been in the summer time!

[JakeFlake]

slacks, dress shoes shirt and tie (most days) with a sweater. I believe in the Ron White philosophy ... if you put good clothes over a pile of crap it can make anyone look better.

[Kettle]

i don't do ties for work
