| | | So jealous.......I hate getting dressed up everyday, just not my style or personality. But, we're in a very upscale area and the "property managers" or whatever require you to be dressed up and professional. Though my office and even the other offices on my floor (from law firms to financial security firms) will wear jeans and a nice shirt on Fridays. I feel more comfortable that way.
I just had a closing down in FT Lauderdale for Gray and Robinson. I was basically the only one dressed up, realtor had baggies and polo shirt on (as well as my borrowers), closing agent had nice jeans and shirt on, and I even saw one guy in a full suit (jacket etc) wearing flip flops LOL.
Stupid dress codes. Personally I've even asked borrowers how they felt about that (flashiness and suited up etc) and it didn't matter whether they made little money or made 7 figures, they all felt that a broker suited up etc made them feel as if the person was trying to be "above" them if that makes any sense.

Laud and I had to dress up every day to work too. So not everybody in Ft. Lauderdale is in flip flops. But I confess now that I am a stay-at-home mom, I spend most of my time bare foot.  Old habits die hard.   |

I've done loans for CEO's and they would wear regular jeans and a white t-shirt in the office lol. |

No worries though, just tell yourself when you're all dolled up that you are wearing your jeans and tshirts on the inside. |

| | | I've tried to get my boss to let me wear shorts , or at least short sleeves on my shirt, to no avail (I'm a funeral director) I have even thought about inventing a shorts/short sleeve jacket combo for the summertime, its still in the works. |

| | | Having worn suits and ties for more than 15 years, theres no simpathy for you all. In each field there are requirements and dress codes, just be glad you dont need to wear a uniform like when in private school. |

| | In Hawaii we call them, slippas.
I usually get to dress in jeans and polo shirt, sometime tshirt, and when I know I don't have to meet with clients I get to wear slippas to work. | | |
