I had an afternoon/evening shift at Big Box DIY store the other day. I got up and put on the tops I planned to wear (never sure how cold it will be so I multi-layer, as we stand right near the exit doors) and then my comfy sweatpants.
Later I put on my safety shoes and left for the store.
I was actually getting out of the car AT the store when I realized ... I still had my sweatpants on. The store's dress code is pretty flexible, but I was pretty sure it wasn't as flexible as all that.
And I was right. I spoke to the head cashier and we managed to corner one of the Ass't. Mgrs. who said nope, you will have to go home and change.
I was 40 minutes late starting, as a result.
Perhaps in future I should hang my workpants on the doorknob of the apartment's front door ...
