In order to foster a positive, professional working evironment we have found it necessary to implement this dress code.

I'm sure this will increase your productivity and improve job satisfaction AND have a dynamic effect on profits, and I am sure, SURE it's not just some new twat in management or personnel making themselves look important by coming up with some random regulation just to piss everyone off.

I would work better and be more productive by choosing my own clothes because then i wouldnt pay them any mind. If i am wearing clothes by restriction then throughout the day i would be mentioning how gay that shit is

Never been able to hold down a job where there was a dress code for longer than 15 mins... Once accepted a job like that without realising but got sacked 15 minutes into the first day because I was wearing combats and "clearly did not take the position seriously enough" as I was not suited & booted.
Fuck them I say. If I can't look the way I want at work then the company culture is not for me and my skills go somewhere else.

It's not that strict though, you could still conceivably be a style conscious fashiontard within those boundries, and at the end of the day thats whats important

Officially mine is smart casual, but as I'm office based, I tend to wear what I like. I've gone in in jeans/tshirts/biking leathers several times and I've never had any formal stick for it. I wear a suit if I'm meeting clients, but if you're emailing people or dealing with machines, why does it matter how you're dressed?
I do tend to wear smartish stuff, but that's only because it helps me relax in the evenings when I "dress down".

get everyone in your dept. to wear thing that aren't on the list....like, i dunno, school uniforms, teddy bear outfits etc. It'll be a riot! :)
I had a ofice job once that was shirt & tie based but had a casual friday.... its so fucking patronising. Then one they the boss came in with ploo shirts with the comapay logo, for us to wear on fridays!!!! If that isn't "the office" material i dunno what is.

I see your point too, but so far my policy has worked pretty ok. Considering all the time and effort put into actually doing a salaried job, I think the money should be really really good to make me wear a suit.. It's a minor thing but the psychological effect is enormous, and I don't even dress in a trendy/high profile whatever way. Just had enough with all the shit companies have given me in the past..
