    This one was news because it's policy, I thought, rather than the usual arguments over opinions on the matter. No one's forcing you to click on it.

    Jeans? They should ban Deans.

    I found this one the most amusing:

    I interviewed in jeans. No point in giving a false impression. It wasn't an issue. Got the job. Have worn jeans or cargo pants everyday since.

    That is a pretty catty statement for an employee memo.

    If all papers did this it would save the industry. Readers appreciate getting their news from well-coiffed journalists.

    I've always thought you dress "one level up" for a job interview.
    But anyway, this guy would fit right in at the LADN.

    He'd fit there, better than he fits in the NBA.

    At least they're trying to keep morale up.

    Could be worse. They could be trying to keep something else up.

    Except for that hideous edging, I kind of like that suit.
