That's Just Wrong, People

Dear Girl Who Works on the Same Floor as Me-

I appreciate that our office encourages a casual work environment. I love wearing jeans to work. And while I am not by any stretch of the imagination a fashionista, I try to do my best to ensure that the company does not repeal that privelege.

Therefore, I must ask you to cease and desist with the coral gaucho sweatsuit and rubber slippers outfit you have been wearing lately. The only place that is an appropriate outfit for work is on the beach. And even then, gauchos? Girl. Those are unforgiving of less than shapely calves. Think about it before your next trip out.

Kisses,

Bethiclaus

Gauchos on some can be cute, and I encourage those people to continue wearing them. On the other hand I believe that I probably share the same calf problem as your co-worker and know better than to wear them myself. What I wouldn't do though to have a more relaxed dress code at work.

Oh man, I laughed so hard when I read this. I work with a guy just like this. No lie, he wore orange pants--like traffic cone orange and he paired it with a red shirt. I think I burned out a retina just looking at him!
