Sneaking this in for Mr PH and others

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=7541126&page=1

This quote stuck out at me- because I'm not a hose lover. I think I've always been upfront about that here, so this should come as no surprise.

We don't want to be told what to wear, so we make our own guidelines.

And in the days that I had to wear business attire to work, and the unspoken rule that hose was necessary. I was resentful of the requirement. I often wore pantsuits, occasionally skirts. And the day that business casual was adopted, I celebrated. Probably to the dismay of Mr PH.

But now at work I can wear pretty much whatever I want and honestly, if I did show dressed up people would certainly notice because the nature of my work requires more rugged clothing. Hose would get wrecked in no time. I don't miss the corporate world one bit.

Did you post this because it summarizes your view quite nicely?

That, and because Mr PH likes posting recent hose news articles. While this doesn't work in the affirmative for those that like it, it is still news.
