i wear a dress shirt, dress pants, dress shoes. Friday is a nice shirt, jeans, and dress shoes or clean sneakers.

i don't understand how anyone can go to work in an office is a t-shirt and shorts, or even a t-shirt and jeans. maybe im old fashion, but I think that working in an office calls for a certain level of professionalism in your dress.

I probably qualify.

I work from home and have the following routine:

Get up, decide if showering or changing underwear is a burning need, decide if yesterday's clothes have had their day, put on shorts and t-shirt, proceed with day...

Why? Does it affect your productivity at all whether you're wearing dress clothes or something casual? I'm more productive when I'm not uncomfortable.

My thoughts exactly. I'm a phone CSR, and I see absolutely ZERO reason I should not be allowed to dress comfortably. Dress pants/slacks, button up, tucked in shirts, and fancy frackin shoes are NOT comfortable. It'd be a bit different if I was a customer-facing employee or getting paid an impressive wage, but I'm a $9/hr phone rep who's being forced to dress like people making 4 digits a pay check take-home? Uh uh, Homey don't play that.

Well, I happen to feel that the bits of cloth strewn about my body are mostly there so that I'm not naked (as apparently that's frowned upon most places--plus I have a leather chair). I can't see how they can effect the quality of my work.

i agree with that. my last job was business casual but we never dealt with clients or vendors, so why? was annoying.

i wear jeans and t-shirts here mainly because I can, but also because i frequently go out into a very dirty and hot manufacturing shop. pretty much anything you touch is guarranteed to leave your hands solid black.

I wear jeans and a t-shirt at home and at work. It's way too hot here most of the time to "dress up", especially in those horrible golf shirts.

AnF or Ruehl t-shirts or casual shirts, cargos (pref LUCKY or Se7en or Polo) and jeans (LUCKY, Se7en, Guess)...

Puma's on my feet or flip flops from Sanuk (really damn comfortable) and some Ray-Ban's or some Dolce glasses.

That's the norm. Around the house, it's bball shorts, boxers, and that's pretty much it.

I usually worry about over-dressing. I enjoy wearing stylish clothes, but if it's not appropriate for the situation then you look like an idiot.

Casual: Old jeans and a plain T-shirt. Maybe an unbuttoned flannel/denim shirt if there's a cool breeze blowing.
My formal attire leans heavily towards 'Casual Friday'. 316

I mean JD gets to bang all the hot chicks, Turk is cool as hell and Dr. Cox is one funny SOB.

I have confidence issues so I try to look professional at work and casual anywhere else. Definately more productive when I'm comfortable in what I'm wearing. However, lately, I've stopped caring as much and have chosen comfortable/trashy-ish; got tired of sweating like a dog just to put on a dress shirt in 35C heat.
