    Have you been hanging around the libertarian think tank again?

    I devoutly hope that the pantyhose industry will follow suit. (I know better than to hope high heels are next.)

    i thought pantyhose was already out. At least that’s what I read on a recent article on “business casual” that I can’t find anymore. One point the article made is that companies are widely variable. Lehman Bros men now have to suit up. Conservative IBM no longer does.

    I still have to wear a tie.

    On my first day at my first job, the summer after freshman year, I wore a tie and was subject to “hey, you got an interview today” jokes. The culture in no uncertain terms told me not to wear a tie, not ever. This has been nothing but reinforced since.
