I'd like to live in a society where we can ban the banning of visible undergarments, visible cleavage, and bare midriffs. (Except for fatty uglies)

How are you going to teach about rocks and minerals in earth science class without showing visible cleavage?

Cue the "everyone with a tattoo is a scumbag" brigade.

Coffee Snob: Cue the "everyone with a tattoo is a scumbag" brigade.

Everyone with a tattoo that is not easily concealable is moderately retarded.

You know who else had rules like these?

The slippery slope compels me to say this...

Is this where we are headed, teachers wearing this?

FriarReb98: I know the younger elementary school kids don't care what the hell you're wearing, and I know people think they're expressing their individuality.

But how farking hard is it to know that in a professional environment, you have to..you know... DRESS PROFESSIONALLY?

This.

My god, you can see her ankle. Shameless hussy.

Man, I love visible cleavage.

Tarl3k:

Well, maybe if they wouldn't sleep with their students, we could still have nice things.

Why don't just make them come dressed in uniforms. Welcome my son to machine. After all your just bricks in the wall. Yes you teacher deal with it !

You're an adult working in a field that claims to be a profession?

Then dress like you're an adult working in profession.

Farking morans.

How one decides to style one's hair/clothes/body strikes me as a rather basic right, and unless it's clearly interfering with productivity employers should really go fark themselves about such things. Maybe it's just me, but I doubt kids are going to be deeply offended by Sally's blue hair. Indecent exposure might cause issues, but this code obviously goes well beyond that.

From February 21:

School board updates dress code to ban jeans, sweatpants, flip-flops, and shirts that show too much cleavage and midriffs. Fark: The dress code is for the teachers, not the students

Tarl3k: The slippery slope compels me to say this...

Is this where we are headed, teachers wearing this?

They are certainly expected to LIVE like that.

Nuclear Panty Heist: How one decides to style one's hair/clothes/body strikes me as a rather basic right,

And dealing with the social repercussions of one's decisions is also a rather basic responsibility of being a default.

All state, county and city schools need to adopt uniforms and enforce it. Students would be much better off. We are one of the few backwards countries that don't require uniforms. Education is a direct reflection of self discipline and uni's are a great way of teaching that.

wildsnowllama: They are certainly expected to LIVE like that.

Fact!

Did a 15 year old see you drinking a glass of wine at a restaurant? How can you uphold the standards of our educational institution with rampant hedonism like that!

Not really feeling the sadness here, punkmitter.

I agree completely. I have a shiatload of tattoos and you can't see them unless I'm wearing shorts and no shirt.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't get what's so unprofessional about jeans. I mean jeans that are well-fitting and in good condition of course.

Dear fellow teachers, this is why we can't have nice things. It's best to accept highly professional dress codes and then continue to demand highly professional pay (commensurate with our 6 years of higher education). Personally, I'd rather have more money than having a "I wanna wear what I wanna wear" right.

/Does the hair on that wart count?
//Not her wart. Not her wart! I'm... I'm the wart. She's my tumor. My... my growth. My... uh, my pimple. I'm Uncle Wart. Just old Buck "Wart" Russell. That's what they call me, or Melanoma Head. They'll call me that. "Melanoma Head's coming." I'm s... uncle! Maisy Russell's uncle!

[Main] School wants to ban flip-flops, visible undergarments, visible cleavage, bare midriffs, clothes that are too tight, too loose or transparent, bare shoulders, short skirts and exercise pants. Fark: Ban is for the teachers

New school dress code bans blue hair, "extreme" hairstyles, facial piercings, "excessive" earrings, flip-flops, visible undergarments, visible cleavage and bare midriffs. And that's just for the teachers

So they won't have an art program?

EXACTLY

/teacher here

These rules seem geared toward female teachers. I see a lawsuit in the future.

One of the students should try to Tinker with these rules.

/"my hair is blue in support for the Democratic party"

Coffee Snob: Cue the "everyone with a tattoo is a scumbag" brigade.

OK. Well, not everybody with a tattoo is a scumbag, but all scumbags have tattoos.

Ban cleavage? I promise you I paid way more attention in Mrs. Austin's science class in grade seven than I did in Mr. Johnson's science class in grade eight. The tight lowcut blouses she liked to wear were a big part of why. Think of it as a bribe to young men at an age where they'd much rather be doing stupid crap like ATV jousting or reenacting Lord of the Flies. The only thing cool about Mr. Johnson was that he was a ginger with a porn 'tache, which was funny for about a week. Slept most of the rest of the year.

What tattoos did Hitler have? Last I heard, he only gave them.

Go fark yourself, Arizona.

Well there goes her teaching career.

There's a big difference between people giving you funny looks and you not being allowed to wear something without getting canned. It's kind of pathetic if the adults are really that uncomfortable with blue hair when it doesn't interfere with the job at hand.

"District leaders created the policy because the organization didn't have a written policy and thought it was time to create one, said Shawn Watt, governing board president."


So in 2012 a company (the school district) with thousands of employees DIDN'T have a written dress code?

I work for a non-profit with 35 employees and we've had a written dress policy for probably 20 years. Only at school boards are there people uneducated enough to NOT have a written dress code in 2012.

Those that can do

On one hand, if you're in a position of authority, it's not hard to dress the part.

On the other hand, who gives a shiat about piercings and tats if they have no effect on your work performance whatsoever?

detroitdoesntsuckthatbad: Those that can do

Those that can not, lobby for tax cuts, less spending on education, and a war with Iran.

"Invisible Cleavage"

As long as they parade the fasces around so they know who is in charge.

You could do that by banning excessively large coffee mugs, or something.

Nuclear Panty Heist: There's a big difference between people giving you funny looks and you not being allowed to wear something without getting canned.

Tough shiat, part of employment means following rules. If you want to make yourself look like a super original non conformist it is your perogitive, but its going to limit your options in life. Your right to look like a freak doesn't somehow give you the privilege of not being treated like one.

It's kind of pathetic if the adults are really that uncomfortable with blue hair when it doesn't interfere with the job at hand.

It does intefere with a lot of jobs. In jobs where you have corporate customers you will be judged on the appearance of your office, right or wrong its better to instill professionalism because you can't control your customers judgments.

Teachers? Looking legitimate to annoying parents is part of their job.

If you want to pierce and tattoo the shiat out of your face and dye your hair a silly color, its your right and choice, but don't start crying when your job options are then limited to tattoo shop employee or barrista in williamsburg.

Ha, sure. If only they'd expand the budget and get those third graders more crayons. That'll restore the US as an economic powerhouse.
