Default No more dress code in work...

We merged with another company. They are really small but they are taking us over and basically said you can wear jeans and sneakers. No more button downs, dress pants or shoes. This is awesome.

Only one problem, we have a conference call today and we know some people are gonna get the axe. Whats the use of a relaxed dress code if you dont have a job.

Cracka *** bitches better not lay me off.

Man I know the feeling....a few months ago Penske Truck Leasing bought out the trucking company I managed at and made quite a few cutbacks and unfortunately I was one of the casualties. Good luck to you man!

Good luck DIESO! Hopefully you'll make the cut! Aren't you glad you got your car payed off!

When John Hancock was bought out, my brother had to go through the same thing. Since the new company used IBM for their IT team. He now works for IBM and he gets to work from home a couple days a week! Lucky Bastard!

good luck joe, i know what you are going though, been going through it for like a year now and the end is coming for me. but just not soon enough. and as for the dress code that is nice, i think i have come work at my place in a white tank top (wife beata) and jeans with holes in the *** and the knees before and had nothing said to me .

That's great news DIESO!! Well all you need is a house and life will be good!

By the way I'm wearing Black jeans, Black Tims and a gray shirt. I basically look like the drug dealer in GTA:SA! I love no dress code. I'm not getting bothered as much today for some reason....

Did you drive your BMW bike with the 3 spoke plastic wheels and pegs to work and spray paint the bathroom with your tag?

Raise? I got one raise in about 5 years and it wasn’t even 15 cents an hour. If I want a raise I need to find a new job and ask for more money.
