Beth was still staring at the Calendar with her mouth open. Say something her
brain went. Well, she thought, I can look stupid after being made a fool or I
can try to salvage something here.
Taking a deep breath, she said, sorry about launching the dress code on April
1, but having a dress code is a good idea. Employee productivity has dropped
and motivation levels are very low. The reason the attrition rate is not that
high is the outside job market is dismal. For the last few months, we have been
taking things for granted. And it has been showing in our work and dress. It’s
high time we do something about it.
Beth was pleased with herself. That’s a damn good start to my speech. I just
hope they are paying attention to my words instead of staring at my pointed
nipples that are straining my tube top.
Beth continued, I know this is a shocking dress code but I wanted to inject
some shock value. We need to get out of this lethargic mindset. Are you with me
or not.
Sitting down, Beth noticed that she was very wet. Power is a real aphrodisiac,
she thought. She almost believed what she said. Well better to be almost naked
than to appear stupid. She hoped that folks around the table brought all the
baloney, she just said.
Megan was first to react. I agree with Beth, we have been very slack around the
office. Today I just threw on this old blouse and slacks, which I would not be
caught dead earlier in. I think a dress code is a great idea. It’s also will
maintain discipline here.
Dave wondered if this would include spanking as a method to enforce the
discipline. He suggested that since we agree with the Dress Code idea, why
don’t we discuss it right now. We can go thru the survey Beth sent out. There
were murmurs of assent around the table.
Megan wanted to know why the dress code was only applicable to women. Beth was
at a loss for words when Michelle piped in that when women raise the level of
dressing sense, Men will follow. After all, Men make such good followers, she
said to the yeas from the gals and slight jeers from the guys.
Ok, Beth said, Let’s vote on the first question – Do we need a dress code for
women. Everyone said yes. Let’s give it try said, Sally from Accounting, I
would like to dress up smarter but I need someone to push me into it. The
general reaction was that things in their lives have been drifting away and
having some discipline will help. Dave and Bob wondered if the discipline meant
spanking.
Ok, It’s established that we need a dress code, said Beth. Lets move to the
next question. Looking at her set of questions, she thought only a guy could
come up with these questions. But these questions brought a cheer to this
otherwise dull meeting. Too bad for the guys, since the majority in this
company are women, we will not be wearing tiny skirts and tube tops with our
bits hanging out like I did today. Still it would be fun to see Megan in that
outfit.
Next question, said Beth, do you believe that they need to be dressed in a more
feminine fashion? Beth was surprised when everyone voted yes for this. She
expect Megan to object but Megan said, this is a good idea and thought, My
dates will be more happy. Hey, thought Beth, what happened to Megan the
feminist. Ok, said Beth, the dress code calls for a more feminine fashion
statement.
Moving forward, said Beth, Do you think that female employees look smarter in a
skirt. Should this be compulsory? Ok, though Beth, let hear complaints how
sexist this survey is. Michelle said that was a good idea and skirt definitely
convey a feminine fashion statement. The guys loved it. Jane was not sure but
said she would try it. Ok then, skirts are compulsory under dress code.
Beth was wondering if her speech was so good but figured out that no one wanted
to be the one to object and come out as not caring about the company’s future
by derailing any proposals to improve it. Next, What should be the minimum
length for the dress or skirt? Maybe we should have something, 1inch below the
knee. Bob said, that sound so boring, how does it go with our new image. Beth
wondered what new image is he talking about.
Sally said 4 inches above the knee will look good. Dave asked Beth to pose her
skirt. Embarrassed Beth walked around to give everyone another look at her
micro skirt. Well Beth, how do you feel wearing that skirt. Trapped with her
own statements, Beth said it felt good and she loved it. Nobody could agree on
a skirt length, so Beth suggest let’s vote on this and move on. Dave suggested
a secret vote. Ok, write down your choices on a sheet of paper, fold it and
pass it along to me.
Ok here goes said Beth, One vote for Ankle length, One vote for 1 inch below,
One vote for 4 inches above, One vote for 4 inches below, One vote for 1 inch
below, One vote for 4 inches above. There seems to be a tie between option B
and option D. Shit, she thought as she opened the last vote (hers), why did I
vote like that. She read one vote for 1 inch below. The guys were ecstatic,
they could not believe that the skirt length dress code was going to be 1 inch
below the crotch.
Jane said that’s not fair but Megan said well that’s what happens when votes
are split. Let that be a lesson to all of us. Beth announced that minimum
length was 1 inch below the crotch. Michelle asked, where are we going to get
skirts like that. Bob suggested that they could order them off the internet and
maybe they could get a group discount. Beth started wondering if Bob was the
one who send her this survey.
The next question was an anticlimax. The women said they hated panty hose for
one reason or another and the men were happy to go along. The truth thought
Beth was that everyone was inching to tackle the next question. Uhh, she was
getting damp just thinking about it. This chair is going to have a spot on it.
Thank goodness it’s black and not leather.
Would the guys be able to manipulate the votes to leave them without panties.
She could not see how. No sane woman would vote for not being able to wear
panties.
