Doesn't it amaze you what some people wear to the office? There are always those folks who take casual Friday too far, come to work in flip flops, or think that showing skin is somehow a professional look. If you have wacky photos of inappropriately dressed co-workers or a funky office space that you'd like to share, send them to us. BusinessWeek recently asked readers to weigh in about pressing office issues. Now, BusinessWeek wants to know what goes on at your office and how you'd resolve some of America's toughest problems at the office. Share your ideas and solve your problems all at once on the Business at Work part of the site. We look forward to hearing from you!

I agree- office dress can sometimes be abused. I think it's important for people just entering the workforce out of college to go "too conservative" for the first week or so- get a feel for how people are dressing in your office. Talk to people who've been there a while- and find out what truly is acceptable- and what will get you fired (or worse, posted on a Wordless Wednesday blog!!). ;)

Haha. Yeah, that's pretty bad, especially if her (?) office is supposed to be "professional." But I've definitely seen worse. My favorite is when co-workers shamefully walk in wearing last night's bar-hopping wardrobe.

I agree, I could not believe what i saw when i entered corporate america and the cloths people wear to the office. Some of the things i wear to the gym or to bed in is worn to work. I was definetly surprised. I can only imagine what our kids will have to wear to work.

Think positive. He's there to pick up some old worn out furniture.
When I entered the work force it was coat and tie every day, now every day is dress casual day.
