Flip-flops and interviews: Where do you stand? (Comments invited!)


I'm 38 years old, which means I'm old enough to think it's appalling when candidates show up for interviews wearing flip-flops (and in the past week, I've seen 4 of them do just that) - but young enough to feel piqued when the 20-somethings in the office think my aversion to flip-flops is old-fashioned.

I don't think it's old-fashioned to think that toes are a body part which should be visible in an interview. (Though I do think that it's just fine for women to have bare legs in the summer - I think offices which insist women wear pantyhose all summer are ridiculous.)

So what do you think?

Leave a comment - and don't forget to include your age bracket!
