Add a traffic safety vest if I'm working carts, or a baseball cap with the store logo if I'm working in bakery or deli.
Ladies have similar rules except from the waist up they aren't required to wear a tie and they can wear whatever shirt they want, because instead of an apron they get a smock that they must keep fully buttonned at all times. Ladies may also wear skirts if they so desire, or capri pants if management decides it's hot enough. No shorts for anybody.
Due to my fat legs running together as well as my box cutter's tendency to want to cut its way out of my pocket, I tend to go through two to four pairs of pants every one to two months. Mind you the apron is the only part of the regular uniform that is provided, and clothes don't come cheap when you're my size.

Ooo yes forgot name tags. We don't have to wear them though, they only have your first name on and position. And all cabin crew have their little Wings badges which we all wear with pride.
Overpriced company shirts that become our property
jeans (except managers and assistant managers)
black, navy or khaki pants (managers and assistant managers, esp.) with belt (yeah right!)
I am working on getting an overpriced company jacket because I am always cold, and I just plain hate the overpriced company vest (which K always manages to take home with her anyway, even though it is a communal vest).
Women can wear up to 2 pairs of earrings (most places only allow one) and guys can wear earrings (some places frown upon that). Facial piercings, I think, are allowed.

Most days: My Plaid Pantry uniforms usually is my blue short-sleeve button up, with Plaid Pantry on the left chest cheek, kept open with my /cooler/ shirts under it.
Second one is a Red/black. (Think Star Trek). Second most worn one.
Third: My strait red plaid pantry shirt,
Finally, if I don't wear any shirt, I have to wear a blue apron that says CoreMark on it.
My work uniform is a blue vest. However, walmart is changing their uniforms. Starting the beginning of February we have to wear a navy blue top with brown/khaki pants.
I wear khaki pants and a black polo shirt. Or sometimes black pants and a black polo. We are allowed to only wear khaki, black, and white colors. So since I practically live at work, my entire wardrobe seems to only consist of khaki pants and black polos. Sad, really.
The constant in my uniform is the black waistcoat, black tie, black slacks, white apron and a black cashmere cap. It's a decent waistcoat, too. Not one of those general issue blue twill vests they wear at Wally World. The shirt varies, though on Wednesdays I wear all black with a silver tie for "personal reasons." In reality I just do that to add a little mystery to myself. I also usually like to roll the sleeves and press them, looks neater that way.
You're not doing me a favor by eating here. I'm doing you a favor by feeding you.
