With rise of g-strings, the lowering of pants and the expansion of waistlines, some office etiquette has gone away.
(Fatty down the hall in spandex, my eyes not on you!)
Down in the city of Brooksville, Florida, it's gotten so bad they had to pass a law to remind city employees to put a little more effort when getting dressed for work.
You know, like take a shower.
After a 4-1 city council vote, Brooksville employees are now required to wear underwear, deodorant, and cover up tattoos while on the clock.
Among the listed requirements:
"employees will not be allowed to wear clothing considered "distracting, offensive or revealing"; body-piercing should be visible only in the ear....halter tops, Spandex, or skirts "worn below the waistline such that the abdomen or back is exposed" will not be permitted."
No word on how the town actually hopes to enforce this law.
I would imagine any boss caught checking his/her employees undergarments would be served an immediate sexual harassment suit.
But maybe that's not the point.
Maybe, just maybe, the idea is to remind a little town and it's nice people what it means to look clean and a bit neater.
Or get out of town.
Because when personal appearance gets so bad you don't give a crap what you look like at the office, it's time to start blogging.
And if that's the case, we're taking applications.
Thanks Tampa, for the laugh.
