You could always go to a psychiatrist and get a note that the collar rubbing against your neck triggers your anxiety.

Another solution is to identify as a woman because they don't have to wear collars or sleeves.

I wish they were as vigilant about ball marks as collared shirts.

Faded jeans and a collared shirt is an oxymorons.

You could be a wise guy and wear a collared shirt with holes and super wrinkled.

Well here’s looking forward to the next collared shirt thread.

Yes I do. I yearn for antiquity.

Take heart! You are becoming more antiquated every day that passes.

I'm thinking this could go on for another few pages.......

Should the new Katie Belle's have a dress code?

She never really explained what the dress requirement was, (I was dressed in nice shorts with a sports shirt on), she just kept mumbling something about a dress code. I walked out just as she was starting to say "you really should not be here"

Management, I am a retired senior executive of a fortune 200 company, I have played some of the most exclusive courses on the planet, I am VERY familiar and ACCEPTING of dress codes, however I have NEVER hear of a dress code for a golf shop or driving range. And I have NEVER heard an employee, demented or not, say "you really should not be here. I find this comment reprehensible, demeaning, and potentially racist. In our era of heightened awareness of inclusion, do you really want employees standing in your golf shop determining who "should and should not be there". I encourage you to train your employees on the proper presentation and explanation of any dress code you enact, in addition I encourage you to enforce that code consistently and without exception. It did not go unnoticed that many others in the shop, restaurant, and driving range, were dressed much more casually than I, but none of them seem to have drawn the wrath of your demented clerk.
Dress code is posted at every golf course in The Villages. It is also on the golfing website. Calling somebody demented certainly doesn't reflect your inclusive desires nor does it portray you as a retired executive of anything.
