They get around it by claiming you can deduct it from your taxes but you can only do that if you itemize your return which means you need at least (roughly, last year, married couple IDK the other filing statuses) $25k in deductions just to break even. To work at a job that is very likely to pay you minimum wage.
My first job did, for some reason. It was just a polo, so it wasn’t a big deal, but I did think it was weird since we never had customers or anything like that at the office 🤷♂️
I once worked as paid practice at a company that required all employees to wear a business suit and tie or whatever the female version of that is. Every day, to go sit in front of the computer and meet literally always the same people, tie and a suit.
My practice ended, and they were very happy with me and asked me to stay longer. I said Lol no and left to never look back.
Programmers have uniforms? WTF?
Any job can have a uniform if your leadership has brain damage
Comment of the day.
I don’t mind uniforms. At least I don’t wear out my own clothes, the ones from work are free.
The majority of workplaces I’ve seen with uniforms require you to buy them. Maybe that’s changed in the last 10 years or so, that would be nice.
Lmao that sounds illegal
Oh wait, America is a thing

This is fucked up.
Bertucci’s made me buy stupid uncomfortable black shoes that I never used outside of work. For a minimum wage job.
I’m in Europe
And if they don’t have brain damage, are they really corporate leadership material?

We had $company-shirt day where we were encouraged to wear them, but no hard requirement.
