Watch what you wear

The Ministry of Education now has a dress code for its office workers. The memo, which prohibits employees from wearing jeans, transparent blouses, shirts, sleeveless shirts, tight jeans or sneakers, has caused a stir. The memo also stipulates the length of women’s skirts, and says that women can’t have “elaborate hairdos” or intricately painted nails. Women will also not be allowed to wear high-heeled shoes, not only because are they noisy, but because they are also uncomfortable for women in a work environment. Men will also be forced to have short hair, must wear plain shirts with no designs and must limit the number of accessories they wear.
