What would you never consider wearing to work? Why?

Well when I was an Area Manager before I became Ill I never used to wear a Skirt I do not like Skirts as it is but the Company was trying to bring in Uniforms where Women where to wear Skirts and I refused blankly but I was not the only one I was an Area Manager for a Cleaning Company and if a Member of my Staff did not turn in and I could not find Cover I had to do it and no way was I wearing a Skirt cleaning neither was I carrying trousers round and getting changed on the Premises

I think a person's dress code should always compliment the occasion. You don't go to church in your golf clothes and visa versa. If you work with small babies in a hospital don't wear watches, dangling necklaces and 20Ct diamond clusters, wear a pocket watch or a broach watch and no other jewelry. I personally have only a few items of jewelry, I don't like a ring on each finger, our 6 earing's like ducks in a row in my ears! I have one necklace with my husbands name, written in hieroglyphics's, that he bought for me in Egypt. My wedding band, a ring on my little finger with 3 tiny diamonds, and a ring on my right hand with one diamond and three small one's next to it. I only have two sets of earring's, the one set is a small diamond stud that I wear everyday, and a half round gold set for when I go out. I guess it is quite save to have showered you with my 'jewelry collection'! lol! Not worth robbing me!

When I worked with visiting nurse assoc, I wouldn't wear my engagement ring to work. Not because I was afraid I'd lose it, but because I was afraid of bringing contamination home (it'd always poke through latex gloves and rip them because of the type of setting) and I was afraid patients might get scratched with it. I also wouldn't wear any jewelry (not even stud earrings) except for my watch and my name tag. I can relate to what you said about the jewelry with violent people and people with behavioral issues. When I worked with severely mentally challenged patients, they would grab at that kind of thing unprovoked. I too have seen ear-lobes ripped on others because of patients like that. Safety first!!

I wouldn't wear my jewelry at work. Nor would I wear good clothing. Cleaning products can ruin both.

I teach nursing at our local collge. Needless to say there is a strict dress code for days that we are at the hospital. One thing that nurses are taught, but ignore once they graduate is NOT to wear the fake fingernails, bracletes and raised-set rings. We don't allow our stuents to wear these yet the minute they graduate and the hospital hires them...they all start. They do this knowing the dangers and risks of infection and patient injury. I would not wear any of those things, even if the school dress code wasn't in place! On days that I teach in the classromm, I wouldn't wear shorts or jeans. I feel that I need to look some-what professional when I teach. I typically wear khaki slacks, black slacks or skirts. (with shirts of course!)

Hi I would wear a tutu for work, mainly because I work on a building site and its not very practical but my staff would take the pi~~ too much. Not that I wear a tutu anywhere else thou

I would never wear any jewlery to work because they may get lost or stolen. I love all my jewerly and I want to keep it in a safe and secure location. This is why I do not want to wear my jewlery to work
