Should there be a dress code for work?

I don't think we need dress codes, per se, but I do think parents need to do a better job of teaching their children what is appropriate for various events. I was absolutely appalled to see people wearing tshirts and shorts to a wedding I attended a few years ago. My mother would've strung me up from the nearest tree if I'd even considered dressing so casually for such an event! To me, those people were displaying utter disrespect for the couple who was getting married. The bride was in a gorgeous gown, the groom in a tuxedo, and it was held in a church. There was nothing about the event that would have suggested 'dress for the beach' to any normal person. I think learning to choose appropriate clothing starts at home, when kids are learning to choose clothing for school and other life events. Parents seem to be negligent, letting their kids go places under-dressed.

i don't think all jobs need dresscode!each job has itz own value and meaning .....dress code can add personality to the person but thatz only temporary or just virtual!

I think there should be, because it shows the unity of an organization and we feel comfortable in the middle of all workers of the organization...
