Summer here is 80ish Fahrenheit on average, up to 95+. In previous years we were allowed to wear shorts but management has changed. The policy now is that “Because we're on a hybrid work schedule, the dress code will be enforced during in-office days.” So even though it's uncomfortably hot out, the fact that we're allowed to work from home two days a week somehow uh… provides cooling? Not sure how that works?
So putting aside the sheer inanity of this policy, I'm not quite ready to hunt for a new job yet so I comply. I wear shorts into the office and then change into pants for work. Well I got an email today from my manager saying that “Multiple people have complained that you are wearing shorts in the office so I wanted to remind you of the dress code.”
Yep. Someone tattled on me because I wore shorts in my way into work. Multiple someones. I just can't with this shit. I cannot imagine the mentality of someone who would do that. It's just fucking sad.
