Dresscode: beach casual

Okay, someone define please.

Also, I'd definitely rather be overdressed than underdressed. There'll be important people present, much older than me, and they have something I want to have in the not-too-distant future IMHO.

Double Post, tried to edit.

nice shorts and a Hawaiian button-down shirt, or madras shorts and an upscale T-shirt. Decent sandals on the feet.

Wear a manthong.

Don't forget to wax.

I'm in Hawaii. Cargo shorts, $3 flip-flops, and a dirty t-shirt seems appropriate for about 95% of things out here. Except they don't call 'em "flip-flops," they call 'em "slippers."

Actually, "beach casual" in Hawaii would be board shorts and nothing else.

The word 'dresscode' gives me goosebumps. I hate that and would never, ever work at a company that has one. Or visit an event where they print one on the invitation because they think you're too stupid to chose for yourself. If they don't trust me enough to have the right sense they don't deserve me.

For guys it's easy anyway. Beach casual means everybody wears the same polo shirts and the same light linen trousers. Don't wear shorts, they have no place in business. The only deviation from the uniform will be the color of the shirt

Heh. That reminds me: "Officially" in the Marine Corps "formal", of course, would be a tuxedo. "Casual" is a jacket and tie. And "California casual" is a collared shirt and trousers. Dunno if "California casual"="beach casual".

They don't have nude beaches in Hawaii?!?! Seems the perfect place for them.

Yes, it's good to be house trained and ready to become just like them if you want to make it in the corporate world. Personality is just an obstacle.

Personally I'd tell them where to shove the alms they pay you for working like a dog when it means becoming ified.

And they're offering that to you? In your second semester? Whoa there, we walk amongst giants

If they were, I wouldn't worry about pissing them off.
I'll have to suffer for another 4 years until I get there.
But then I'm sure you already knew that. Can you guess the company though?

^ How could I guess the company? As long as you and Storm don't get their way, there's more than one

Btw, I wouldn't call university 'suffering'. It's really the last phase of your life when you can be yourself. Enjoy it. Or are you one of those that sit in the first row dressed up like at a business meeting? Personally, I was the one in the last row still drunk because I hadn't been in bed before lectures

Ah, but at least the sector?

^ No

NGO?

Or a quasi (like the UN)?

[?=Very nice!][/?]

I think he forgot to wax.

This guy didn't:

You know that was really his hair and not a prop they were waxing right?

You can tell by his screams.

Yep.

And it's his commitment to his craft that let him pull as much as they did.
