How do you dress while on the job? - By Karen Brune Mathis, Florida Times-Union, FL
Rooks advises that, in general, if you think you shouldn't wear 'that' to work, don't.
Of course the dress code should fit the job. Professional offices call for stricter standards than casual workplaces. Outdoor jobs differ from indoor jobs. Some positions require uniforms, ranging from law enforcement officers to fast-food workers to Hooters Girls.
