what's with all the riddles? Who's James Lipton and why do you never give a stight answer?

The answer lies somewhere between the first robin sighting of spring and an order of buffalo wings. Do you always answer a question with another?

It used to conjure up pleasant images for me. That is until that fateful day when I wore my finest fur and had the Peta folk throw paint all over me. Now it just makes me sad.

Look it's not like I'm AGAINST looking good... but I'm against the idea that somehow we should all be OBLIGED to look good for their employers. The idea of that just seems like a really strange and obviously really mild form of prostitution.

well there ARE a few different definitions for prostitution... here's one it falls under:

"The act of setting one's self to sale"

You wear what your company tells you to wear so if you're dressing to make yourself look a certain way for financial gain... well what does that say to ya?

none the less, i feel i have to address this issue. from this definition, ANYone who takes $$$ for services is a 'prostitute.' you arrive relatively on time for work, yes? did you get to decide this or did your employer dictate your arrival and departure time for work? you work X amount of days in a year, why? b/c your employer set these guidelines for you to be in their employ. this is no different from a dresscode.

while working a construction site being a far more lenient dresscode than an office, i am sure workers are expected to wear 'working clothes' appropriate for their environment. no, not a suit or a tie, nor business casual, but attire appropriate for the environment. the same holds true for an office. would you agree that on a construction site ANd in an office it would inappropriate to wear pyjamas? do you believe your employer would have the right to speak to you for wearing such at work? same with extremely revealing clothing, etc. i am taking it to the 'extreme'....simply b/c you make it sound 'extreme' for an employer to have ANY expectations or requirements for your appearance to work, to work for their company, who is PAYING you to adhere to their guidelines.

so yes, we're all whores for a paycheck m'dear. you draw the line on being told what to wear...although even you must admit you DO to some extent follow 'rules' for proper clothing b/c you don't show up in revealing evening wear or pyjamas for instance....you just seem to draw the line with business casual and/or suits. c'est la vie. but to call anyone who wears 'professional' attire a mild form of prostitiution, is skewing the facts...were all mildly prostitutes.

Bump..
