Fridays

Many offices have a culture of dressing down on Fridays, but some people have absolutely no idea. I saw a businessman at the train station last Friday wearing running shoes and a Hawaiian shirt. It’s supposed to be Casual Friday not Cockhead Friday. Was he really expecting fun and games to spontaneously break out at that day’s board meeting? He probably had a hula-hoop in his briefcase on the off-chance. The only times when Hawaiian shirts are acceptable are if you are making a guest appearance on the TV show Lost, and when you are a private detective trying to blend in at a speed dating evening for university lecturers.
