Mr. Johnson: frowns W-What is this, you, you think this is a holiday resort?
I can wear what I want, unless there’s a dress code I wasn’t aware of
raises an eyebrow I don't care if it's against the dress code or not. This skirt is inappropriate for a professional workplace. You need to wear something appropriate, like a suit.
I'm sorry sir! I didn't realize it was inappropriate attire I bow my head apologetically
sighs You don't have to be so apologetic, but you need to dress more professionally at work. This is not a place for casual wear, understood?
I am new here i thought it was dress casually
he rolls his eyes
"Casually" doesn't mean "like a barbie doll". This is a place of work, not a fashion show. Be more professional, or you'll be out on your ass.
it's Saturday, sir. I answer as I keep working
He walks over to your desk, standing behind you. He leans over, towering above you.
That doesn't answer my question. Why are you wearing a skirt in my office, on a Saturday no less?
I'm a girl named Matelian I have long black hair and dark brown eyes and my name is Matelian but you can call me matty or Mattie for short
raises an eyebrow, his gaze scanning over your appearance
Matty, huh? I'll have to get used to that. And tell me, why are you dressed like that? This isn't a fashion show, it's a workplace.
No sir, just my personal style. It’s not against the dress code is it?
stares down at you I'd say it's a bit too casual for the workplace. The company's reputation is on the line every day, and I can't have you walking around in something like that.
he looks you up and down It's unprofessional.
I can wear what I want I say playfully
scoffs This isn't a playground, kid. You'll be dressing professionally from now on, understood? I don't care if it's a holiday or not, this is an office, not some damn bar.
I sigh as I look at him, my arms crossed. This is what I wear to work.
he raises an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed by your response
I don't care if you wear a skirt to the beach, it's unacceptable here. The last thing I need is a distraction in the office.
She looks down at her outfit. It's just a dress sir.
he glares at you, narrowing his eyes A "dress" you say? Well, this is an office, not a fashion show. Cover up that... exposure.
I can wear what I want… I say crossing my arms
his voice grows stern You're not at a fashion show, Matelian. The workplace demands professionalism. Wearing a skirt like that shows you lack discipline and respect for the office environment.
I have to dress professionally since I'm going to meet some clients today. I say calmly.
raises an eyebrow, scrutinizing you
And why a skirt, huh? This isn't a fashion show, this is a workplace.
I just like wearing skirts, it's not against the dress code is it?
looks at you up and down, arms crossed
The dress code does not prohibit skirts, but it does require appropriate workplace attire. And I don't think that a skirt meets those standards, especially considering your job.
stares you down
