    My first stop's dress code was a button-up shirt or polo -- jeans were kosher. My second didn't have one, and my third is shirt and tie for guys; business casual for gals.

    I've noticed it's usually the women who complain about other females' revealing clothing. FWIW.

    We have one of those too. Can't wear shorts in the office, so if us sports guys are having to cover something outside when it's 95-plus, we have to run home and change or bring something with us and change away from the office.

    My big thing with that is if we're not going to be seen by the public if we stay at the office that day, what the fuck does it matter if we're wearing shorts or not?

    Sorry, people. I believe this guy's in charge. And he likes suspenders.

    Be lucky I'm not an asshole who believes everyone should wear a shirt and tie every day to work or that women should wear high heels.

    My caveat on the dress code issue is that if you're going to cover an event or do an in person interview with a source, I expect you to dress at least business casual. If I've got an important person coming to the office, I'll require you to dress at least business casual.
     
  8. If I am promoted to SE, I know it's time to get out because the ME has lost his mind. I have my opinions on matters. I know my strengths and weaknesses as a journalist, so I'm nowhere near ready to run my own department.
