Jeans and a T-shirt for the most part... they dont care what you wear as long as you fix the problem.... /promise to fix it/

My first day on my present job my manager told me to lose the tie, come to think of it I have no idea what the dress code is here...

[KoyoteGambit]

I think owners/managers of a more present time are a bit more accommodating with the 'dress code' fiasco, if you have to deal with customers/clients then the dress matters, dress smartly, but like me, you don't meet much from my back room, the only thing that matters is getting the job done on time.

My place is one of Ja's most successful and i wear pretty much anything i want, just as long as its clean, or neat, and the last is just my preference, were about results, not appearances, but i only interact with people on the inside, not cust.. I dont expect this to be the same everywhere tho, as for the hair, i asked once what would happen if i choose to grow my locks, i was told nothing but i could tell that if i wanted to do it i had keep it neat, which i would anyway...
Meh, Jeans and a t-shirt on a Monday morn feels damn good, wore a tie once...got laughed a the whole day...

well my first IT job was pretty much blue jeans and white t-shirt every day.
the next one was jeans and some random button shirt.
the current place now well me worried more time me feel like me over dress if one a we show up in a fire man suit it would'nt realy matter much to any one or the boss.
