Thread: Casual Day

A Company decides to adopt Fridays as Casual Day
and they issued a Memo to all department intimating
the same.

Week 1

Memo 1: Effective this week, the company is adopting
Fridays as Casual Day. Employees are free to dress in
the casual attire of their choice.

Week 3

Memo 2: Spandex and leather micro-miniskirts are not
appropriate attire for Casual Day.

Week 6

Memo 3: Casual Day refers to dress only, not attitude.

Week 8

Memo 4: A seminar on how to dress for Casual Day will
be held at 4 p.m. Friday in the cafeteria. A fashion show
will follow. Attendance is mandatory.

Week 9

Memo No. 5: As an outgrowth of Friday's seminar, a
14-member Casual Day Task Force has been appointed
to prepare guidelines for proper casual-day dress.

Week 14

Memo 6: The Casual Day Task Force has distributed a
30-page manual entitled "Relaxing Dress Without
Relaxing Company Standards." A copy has been
distributed to every employee.

Week 18

Memo 7: Company is providing psychological counseling
for employees who may be having difficulty adjusting
to Casual Day.

Week 20

Memo 8: We are no longer able to effectively support or
manage Casual Day. Casual Day is discontinued

A lot of problems could have been avoided if the company had declared Friday as Casuals Day instead of "Casual Day" ! Probably the employees misunderstood what the management implied !
