So my new waterproof boots with camo on the upper is going to be a no no? Better get out my black magic marker. And tie my hair up. So what do I do with all my shirts that have holes in the pockets, grease stains, and rips, and I ordered them in Sept?

Cracking down on non UPS turtlenecks and sweatshirts???
Several of us have been wearing brown, hooded, zip up sweatshirts. They are not UPS approved and am waiting for the crackdown on them. Couple of years ago, we had a warning on wearing turtlenecks any color other than white, black and brown.
No more stylin.

Sounds like a good night for a Windows 8 tutorial.

Every once in a while our center manager goes on a rant about these---we put them away for awhile and then start wearing them again.

Watched a guy do that the other day. Boots went from looking nice, to 'meets UPS guidelines' and looking ugly. Bummer.
We are no longer allowed to wear black, only brown and white. I had a snowman on my white turtleneck, that was a nono. I tried a pink one, thought since Im a girl, it would be ok, NOPE.
My SUP they where going to check with the big boss about boots not being black. But the hooded UPS sweat shirts or other no issue uniform improvements are a no no. Of course once your leave the building it's free game. You just need to be dressed appropriately in the building.
The sweat shirts are out to. Until you leave the building LOL
I tried the tutorials on you tube. My eyes got crossed. I think my biggest problem is the knowing how to use a laptop. I have to do that too. It took me days to learn to answer my smart phone...Im not all that smart.

They don't do on area observations in your building?
I have a brown carhart, I wear, a sweatshirt. I want to be warm. I think they should invest in some updated gear for cold weather, if they care, but thats still down the road. Why do smaller companies invest in warmer gear, but we still get the cintas crap, the wind goes right through them. And Im still waiting on my new vest also
Not at night, and not when its cold out.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Uh white or brown that's it. I have a black $50 cold gear mock turtleneck that I wear just to piss off our HR lady. She is our attire nazi. Actually posted a copy of the attire rules and highlighted white and brown only.

I would probably cry if they enforced no black. Sierra Trading Post had a super sale on some really warm mock turtles and regular turtles, black only. I would have to button my shirt to the very top button. I would look like a total tool.
What the heck, I have done dumber things for lamer reasons. I will button the top button.
