Now, granted it was a little low cut, but nothing over the top. My boss’s way of telling her this was handing the secretary a safety pin and telling her to “take care of that.” What really bugs me about this story is that our front desk people, who are the first people our patients see, get away with wearing extremely revealing shirts and skirts that barely cover their rearends. Nothing EVER gets said to them. Just very annoying!!!!

It irritates me to no end that they think that people will die if we wear jeans on Fridays. We also have a no tennis shoes rule and the jeans rule is very clear about no jeans of any color, and yet one of the worst employees in my department consistently wear both jeans and tennis shoes and NO ONE says anything…I had to get a note from my doctor to be allowed to wear tennis shoes while I was pregnant, and I know of at least one girl who got called into HR for wearing shirts they deemed not business casual enough, but blantant disregard for the jeans and tennis shoes by a terrible employee…totally ignored. And don’t even get me started on the woman down the aisle here who is clearly trying to signal something to the aliens, because there is no other reason to dress in flourescent colors from head to toe EVERY DAY.

Our outfits were mostly covered by our white coats, and sneakers in good condition were allowed because we were on our feet all day, but we did have one absolute rule: NO JEANS. And yet there was one woman who wore jeans every single day, and none of our bosses ever made her change. Not once. I couldn’t understand it at all. They would make little jokes about it as if they hoped she’d get the hint, but if she wasn’t getting the “NO JEANS ALLOWED” hint I don’t know what made them think she’d get their little ha-ha jokes.
