    So you're wearing your straitjacket on top of your t-shirt then??? Is that ok, dresscode-wise?

      I think it is bothering my boss to no end that I am wearing my shirt outside my pants today (no clients today). He won't say anything to me about but I know he wants to. I can get away with it because I produce and I work very long hours most of the time. I'm very lucky this way but I won't push the boundaries. Now those of you who get to work from home in your pajamas and/or skivvies then my hats off to you. :)

      I wear jeans, shorts, hawaian shirts, jeans with holes in, t shirts, hiking boots, biker boots, dont shave, put my feet up on the desk drink coffee and go for a fag when I like. I cant think why any code development env should be any different.

        Yes, working all day with beautiful naked women would be nice but how much work would I really get done? :laugh:

            Does your shirt have pictures of zombies or skulls on it?

            The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

              Company I'm at have a nice dress code. I can wear jeans if I want and I don't need to tuck my shirt in. Couple of times a week I dress in casual trousers as it's nice to have a separation between office and home attire.

                    Doubt it. Some beautiful naked women seem to get less beautiful, the more you talk to them.

                            I don't think your grasp of the English language is really that strong. What I said was not sexual in nature at all. However, the act of spitting stuff up out of one's mouth seems to make you think of things in the oral arena...very interesting...

                              You missed the joke icon. On a serious note though: My grasp of the English language may not be strong, but it is, in fact, much stronger when compared to the linguistic skills of an average American, and some Englishmen.

No one has said a word and some of my colleagues have stopped wearing them. Hurrah for common sense! What sort of a moron wears a brightly colored napkin around their neck all day?

                                        You missed the joke icon. On a serious note though: My grasp of the English language may not be strong, but it is, in fact, much stronger when compared to the linguistic skills of an average American, and some Englishmen.

                                          Doubt it. Some beautiful naked women seem to get less beautiful, the more you talk to them.

                                          Well there's your problem right there! When beautiful women are naked you are not supposed to talk to them!! :)
