We are products of our environment. There was a time when guys in my neighborhood believed success was achieved by working toward an occupation that required wearing a suit and tie. Protocols were established for social interactions.
Then the hippie generation kicked in and grunge was cool. it carried to the office where corporations were, much to my chagrin, pressured to causal attire.
With that change came a change in thinking. I spent the remaining years of work in part policing what my employees wore and making a determination if it met the company's dress code. Believe me when I say some folks simply have no common sense .
A person's attire in part reflects who they are, as does the manner in which they maintain their property, their conversation, etc.
One of the benefits for me for now being retired is that I no longer have to play clothes monitor.
Personal Best Regards:
