Casual Friday seems like an absurd concept to me. Either you're capable of getting the job done in denim, or you're not. If you cannot, why would you be allowed

Casual Friday seems like an absurd concept to me. Either you're capable of getting the job done in denim, or you're not. If you cannot, why would you be allowed to wear them on Friday? If you can, why wouldn't you be able to wear them on Monday through Thursday?

- VLM 11y agoI can control what you wear down to the weirdest detail, and you'll cooperate.
- AnimalMuppet 11y agoI'm a computer programmer. The computer does not care what I wear. (If I had customer contact, what I wear would matter.) If you're my boss, and you turn into that kind of a control freak, I may cooperate for the moment, but my resume will be on the street by this evening.

- mcv 11y agoIt's always possible that some business visitor, maybe representing a big customer, gets a tour of the office and gets to see where the programmers are working. Personally I'd think that visit would be more effective if he sees that the programmers are not dressy business people but people hired for their brains, but clearly some disagree.
- golergka 11y agoI think it comes from tradition that you have a lot of official meetings throughout the week, but not on Fridays
