Just take off the bracelet and she's all ready for moving day.

Look, I get that you think you look pulled together and fashionable, but that doesn't mean it's really appropriate for teachers to wear jeans every single day. Have some dignity and take some pride in your appearance ... and profession. Even if you wore a diamond necklace with jeans, it still doesn't make it "dressy" ... or a good look for a teacher. JMO.

Even though he had a long white coat on, she did not believe he was a doctor and would not cooperate with him.
That's pretty stupid.
Ouch @Mellie32 c'mon . . . to be honest, I personally think what you choose to wear in your classroom is more than fine but can't you cut some folks that may be a tad older some slack and not call them stupid as maybe they haven't rounded the curve in terms of what is acceptable in a doctor's office these days?
Believing that someone isn't really a doctor because of what he chose to wear under his medical coat is stupid. Believing that what he was wearing was inappropriate for his occupation - fine. Believing he wasn't even a real doctor - stupid. That's my honest opinion.

@Mellie32My honest opinion is that you read into my post what you wanted to.

Well stated ..... Any working person who has responsibility (and authority) should dress with some .... dignity. There's no excuse for looking like it's moving day, or you're going on a picnic.

For crying out loud, set an example and show the kids how to dress with some thought given to how the world sees you. No wonder young adults don't know how to dress .... they just got out of schools where the teachers didn't know how to dress, either!

If teachers and students all wear jeans to school, the teachers don't really show they have responsible positions, and won't command respect. They just look like big children.
LOL! No one would wear those outfits on "moving day". They're classy and perfect for a teacher. I wear jeans all of the time and I demand and get respect everyday.

Mellie, those outfits are not "classy." Most of the pants are too tight to be appropriate for classroom use anyway, assuming you're a teacher.

If you have to "demand" respect, apparently it isn't freely arising. Wearing dungarees probably has nothing to do with that, but who knows? Trying dressing like an adult in a degreed position for a while and see what happens. You might be surprised.

I'm an adult in a highly degreed position, and I wear jeans at least 3 days out of 5. On the 4th, I work from home and don't bother with pants of any kind

Oh. Because I'm pretty sure you said she didn't believe he was a doctor because of what he was wearing.

Insult much? I do dress like an adult. I'm very well-respected in my school district by teachers, students and parents. Thanks so much for your opinions, though.
