I’ve always liked uniforms. When I was a kid, I wore sailor suits every day until I was eight. People called me Captain Crapstick because of how I dressed and the fact that I would carry around a stick with me that I used for poking all sorts of crap. I still have my sailor suit hanging proudly in my closet, but I only break it out when a special lady comes over. It doesn’t fit so well anymore, but I still look darn cute in it.
In my opinion, every job should have a uniform. Fast-food workers, gas station attendants, exterminators, these guys all have it covered already. I’m pushing for the jobs that make you waste time every morning decided what to wear. Take my job, for instance. I know I’m not allowed to wear shorts, because every time I do, I get yelled at. I also can’t wear vests without shirts underneath. So I’m locked into wearing a certain combination of clothing every day, but there are just too many choices. If it were up to me, I’d implement an office worker uniform so you could just wake up every morning, go to your uniform closet, and three seconds later you’re all set.
My uniform would consist of three items and three items only.
1. Navy blue sweatpants. These are the first item because they’re the most important. When I go home, the first thing I do is put on navy blue sweatpants. You can’t find a more comfortable piece of clothing. The color is great because you can spill all you want and nobody’s the wiser. All in all, if the uniform doesn’t include navy blue sweatpants, I don’t want the job.
2. A vest. No shirt required. Vests are amazing inventions. They cover up your nipples (which society has decided are unacceptable to see, for some reason) and they’re classy. You want to class up a joint? Throw on a vest. You want to add some more class? Make sure that vest is leather.
3. Comfy slippers. Right after I change into my navy blue sweatpants, I slide on my sheepskin-lined slippers. Talk about comfort! These little puppies make it feel like you’re walking on a field of soft paralyzed sheep – I say paralyzed only so you don’t picture the sheep as moving. If I could wear slippers to work every day, I’d probably start caring about my job.
These three items could change the workplace as we know it. I’m serious, America. Just think about how much more productive we would be as a country if all office-workers wore navy blue sweatpants, vests without shirts, and comfy slippers. We’d be a comfortably dressed productivity superpower, and honestly, isn’t that what all this fighting is about anyway?
Man, I wish Sit n' Sleep carried some paralyzed sheep! They sound soooo cuddly and warm!!
I agree, who wants to wear pants that show off the chicken grease that I spilled on them? And why can't we wear slippers in an office? So we have better traction when we're typing? I think not.
im with you on the vests only i like the sheep on the vest too. and shirts are for saps

I think that Pam and the female toby would look pretty hot with just a vest on and no shirt but Kevin.....well not so much.
first off i am in the military and i like this idea because i would have alot of uniforms to change into.
I know the uniform is supposed to be composed of three things, and three things only, but what if I wanted to add something with a little panache, say a monacle?
I keep a sweater, a jacket, and a pair of Chinese slippers in my desk at work. Just last week I got away with wearing a t-shirt thanks to the sweater that I put on over it as soon as I got to work.
I'd be all about the uniform, except for the vest-but-no-shirt part. That could get... uncomfortable. But we could work out those details after the proposition is on the table. Let's step forward with this movement!
creed creed creed....listen to me, brother. the thing you want to wear, the most comfortable thing ever? absolutely nothing. it's nice and airy, nothing holding your parts back...then again, i'm not sure your co-workers would go for it. damn. nevermind.
ahaha, captin crapstick! hahahahahaahahah
