Your uniform

[Primer]

Finally, if I don't wear any shirt, I have to wear a blue apron that says CoreMark on it.

Hmmm....a shirtless man in only an apron.....

Hey, I'm married, not dead!!

[Food Lady]

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.

That will be much better than those ghetto-fabulous vests. Sorry, I just, as a customer, don't like to feel like I'm shopping at a 'mart, even though I am, and those vests say 'mart. <Food Lady=hypocrite>

I can never wear shorts or sleeveless tops. I have to wear a red top and khaki non-knit pants, so it's really obvious where I work. I run the gamut from tomato red to deep burgundy, and stone to light gold--because I can. I was cashiering one day and someone thought I was cool because I "dared" to wear burgundy instead of red. No one cares. I have chinos, capris, dress pants, whatever. And I mostly wear fitted long- or short-sleeved T-shirts. I hardly ever wear sweaters; I get too hot. As long as it's a solid somewhere in the red family, they don't care. I pay for all of my work clothes and shoes; nothing is provided except the apron and hat I wear when I do food.

[Can I Help Your A$$?]

Red and khaki; what else?

But of course the red is generally covered in a thin paste of truck grease.

i used to wear my stupid walmart vest. i quit doing that. the dress code is changing in a couple of months,so i am enjoying black pants and band t shirts until its polo shirts and khakis. i still wear my namebadge,but usually not in a visible area.

Non-slip shoes are really the only hard and fast rule for my department. And the store pays $18 toward a pair every year if I order through them (and deduct the remainder from my paycheck - they're not very expensive either). I learned why REALLY quick today (my first day on the floor) - walked through the dishwashing area and damn near busted my ass, it was like being on ice.

Any pants/shorts of a solid color, t-shirt with nothing printed on the back, company issued hat (since I'm in the prepared foods department, otherwise no hat), and a white "chef's coat" or whatever they call them. Store provides a clean coat daily.

Technically, the dress code says I'm allowed to wear tank tops - but only if I shave my armpits (I'm a guy). The dress code has absolutely nothing gender specific in it though - the way dress codes should be, I think. It also allows up to 5 piercings in each ear

[RecoveringKinkoid]

Kinko's: When I left, blue oxford shirt, khakis or a skirt, my choice of shoes. Usually put my hair up and wore any one of my vast assortment of false hair pieces in bizarre colors. ( And yes, in my pic in the photo album, that' is my real hair. )

Public TV: usually, jeans, docs, t-shirt, flannel shirt over that. Frequently, kercheif on head if I expected to have to paint a set or unload a truck. If I was scheduled to work a show with outside guests or a studio audience, studio "blacks" (long sleeve black t shirt, black jeans, black shoes).

Commercial TV: Anything, up to and including jogging suits and pajamas.

Olive Garden: Black pants, white dress shirt, tie. An ensemble I always thought was stupid, considering the amount of red tomato gravy I was slinging around.

The Zoo: Indiana Jones crappola

Photo Labs: Anything. I worked in a darkroom. Usually, though, olive drab sweaters because it was cold and most of my chemicals stained clothing olive drab. Wear that color, nobody knows your sweater is stained.

Current Job: Business casual. Though I like to dress up. After years of dressing like a male grunge person, it's nice to dress like a woman for a change.

[Delacroix]

Any old shirt besides a printed tee (we're not allowed to wear those. Girly printed tees are acceptable for some reason) any pair of pants besides jeans, and either a pair of skating sneakers or black boots.
Printed tees with game titles on them are acceptable though as well for some reason. I have an Ace Combat X one was well as a Kingdom Hearts II one. I think they let us wear them because sometimes they come as freebies for people who preorder the item.

Yeah, I do enjoy dressing like a woman occasionally myself.

But enough about me doing drag. (ba da boom)

... sorry... had to do it.

Ugh, ours sucks.

Seeing as I'm not a department head currently (still coded one) I can't wear my button-down collar shirts, so I'm stuck w/the navy polo or sweatshirt w/company logo. Khaki pants and either black or brown shoes.

In colder weather, I can wear a solid color turtleneck underneath my sweatshirt. As long as what I'm wearing on the outside is navy and has company logo, I'm pretty much okay.

Sad part is: we have to pay for our shirts. Even when one is hired, we have to pay for our shirts. Food Kitty doesn't give us anything (except a hard time.)

[tshawne]

At my job, we wear black pants, and green uniform shirts, and whatever shoes don't make our feet hurt. Except in the bakery, where they wear all white, including aprons and hats. We're supposed to be getting new uniforms in the Spring, but even managment doesn't know what they're going to look like. Probably something green & black, since that's our store colors.

I hate the color green! Yuck!

[danegrous_21]

the man with 2 jobs

retail job- company ebroided polo shirt, some form of khaki or black pants
news studio job- almost anything, i usually wear, jeans and a tshirt or polo

[Drakstern]

Business casual(Yay for polo shirts and dress pants) during the week.

Casual(Yay for Snarky T-Shirts and jeans) on weekends.

I'm half tempted to try wearing one of my old Giant Eagle polos in to work one day. See if they let me get away with it.

[symposes]

Any day, we can wear anything we want so long as it isnt ragged looking.
Ie no holes in the pants, and the only holes allowed in the shirts are if you get them that day on the job. hehe.
They offer a uniform too, its grey slacks, and grey shirts, polo and button up, short and long sleeve on that last one.
if you are in the uniform club, you can wear the uniform shorts, as far as i know, thats the only exception.

I joined the uniform club because its free. 7 tops, 7 bottoms, a pair of boots, a jacket with removeable liner, and a hat.
you can get jumpsuits too if you want, but they count as top and bottom.
They even through in the outside workwear, Berne apparel, its like carhart, but not as good... but its free, as long as you arent asking for more then 1 set a year, theyll replace it.(uniform club or not...)
I went through 3 pairs of jeans in less then 6 months before i got my uniform.
I usually wore pants til i wore holes in them. or ripped the heck out of them. so its not like i wasnt trying to make them last, even patched a set i almost ripped a leg off of while climbing scafolding.\

The official uniform specs are interpreted rather loosely at the Depot:

Light blue button-down shirt, long or short sleeve: When this first started we were given a color swatch to match as close as possible, but the color ranges from baby blue to cobalt.

Black slacks: Again, the gamut running from grubby-2-sizes-too-big khakis to pinstripe trousers to jeans.

Black socks and shoes: Everything from my red argyle socks and combat boots to white socks and 'skater' type sneakers.
