TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Just out of curiosity, what do you all wear to work?
We have no dress code, so most of the people in my department wear jeans and
t-shirts, but I am not comfortable being in a professional environment and
looking like I'm ready to mow the lawn, so I wear business clothes or
dresses except on Fridays. (I guess I'm just a dang nonconformist....)
Do you/your tech writing employees have a dress code? I honestly think
having one goes a long way toward respect for the profession and department.
The more important personnel dress nicely. I can't help wondering if
encouraging us to walk around in our housekeeping duds is a way (perhaps
subconscious) for the higher-ups to remind us where we stand in relation to
them...? (Or, as I like to put it, "The Man keeping a bruthuh down" HAHA
:P)
