   SH>Last week someone came to a job interview at my company in sweat pants.   
     >Yes, he was hired.  We explain that once he's hired if he comes to work   
     >in sweat pants he will be sent home to change and he will not be paid until   
     >he comes back in clothing that is approved.  (Everything except sweat pants)   
      
   Ha.. that reminded me of my first longer term job when I was still in   
   high school at a grocery store. I had a summer job welding at a steel   
   plant and one day while I was changing a welding rod so had ahold of   
   it, lighting hit the high tension wires outside and blew out every   
   electric motor in the plant and knocked me right off my feet..   
      
   That cost me my job since they had to shut the place down for too   
   long for me to go back so when I saw the help wanted sign up in the   
   grocery store I asked about it. I filled out the application and   
   then the store manager came out to talk to me immediately.   
      
   He looked at how I was dressed and said, I can see you ride a motorcycle.   
   Whay happens when it rains? "I get wet.." I answered..   
   He seemed happy enough with that answer but as I was leaving he said   
   to me, you're going to need a white shirt, black pants (not leather)   
   and get your hair cut.. I ended up working for that company both part   
   time when in school and full time later for about 7 years.
