fuck man, since starting my new job i've been stuck at what to wear. wearing a suit used to "suit" me fine because it's easy, versatile, and it covers up the fact i haven't ironed my shirt. but when i turned up to work in a suit in this new job i got reprimanded twice (in the nicest way). "you know you don't have to wear a suit to work. as long as it's not jeans or trainers then you're fine".

so now what the fuck do i wear? it's cold outside man, and i'm not going to walk around in just a shirt. and what do i wear if i'm not supposed to wear jeans and trainers nor a suit?

also - mufty day on friday - what the fuck do you wear? i feel like it's a bit of a waste to wear anything trendy to work because, well it's work innit? but then you look like a dork if you turn up wearing work clothes.

We're exactly the same at our place. I wear suit trousers and a nice shirt most of the week (yes, ironing is a pain, but a well ironed shirt looks good) and as for Fridays, that's why you've got all those funky t-shirts.

WTF is "smart summer casual"???

GIS turns up dudes in sport jackets and shorts (no) and this, which is neither helpful nor entirely SFW:

whose code?

My employer, referring to an outdoor happy hour/networking event.

I mean, I know what to wear to a summer outdoor happy hour/networking event but the fact that they felt it necessary to instruct us to dress "smart summer casual" makes me wonder if it is not as self-explanatory as I thought it was.

my work's dress code is strictly normcore

that is the sort of double bind that in prevous generations was thought to induce insanity, 'be louche and straitlaced simulatenously'

imagine theyre envisaging some hamptons boat club chic nonsense

I think you're right. Of course, kids are also invited so I'm bringing our infant which means I have the added difficulty level of figuring out something that meets those requirements and can get baby barf on it.
