Regarding dress codes, I worked at a three-letter company in the 90s that changed their dress code to allow us to wear shorts, as long as they were "tasteful."

Regarding dress codes, I worked at a three-letter company in the 90s that changed their dress code to allow us to wear shorts, as long as they were "tasteful." And that worked well at the start. But then a couple of the rebels, who were more than happy to be considered rebels, started wearing the moral equivalent of running shorts, which back in those days went above mid-thigh. That lasted about a month, and then shorts were no longer allowed.
