Re: 鈥淎rchaic dress code an affront to women,鈥� column, March 29.
1. Dress code is the prerogative of the employer. It is something to inquire about upon application.
2. Does 鈥渆quality in the workplace鈥� not apply here? How far inside the door would male colleagues get if they appeared for work in sleeveless shirts with open necklines?
3. 鈥淒ress for the job you want, not the one you have.鈥� It seems a few of the females shown were eyeing much different occupations than governmental.
I am not a fan of this government, but we all must respect the ideal of government. Alas, perhaps 鈥渄ecorum鈥� has no meaning these days.
