Is there is anybody reading this out there who works in a corporate environment? What I want to know - are casual Fridays a thing of the past? Have people been losing them or is it as strong or stronger than ever?

I really want to know. The reason is that we have just lost ours. Not a big thing on its own maybe, but it certainly wound me up. Should I really be so annoyed or is it an inevitable trend in the workplace. Of course it may be all the things that have gone before that have wound me up.

We get told when there is one and you have to pay $2 to do so to some charity or other.

Sometimes if I know I don't have meetings, I do a casual friday thing all by myself.

Ours was charity related - each month we would get a list of the charities our mufti money was going to with the chance to opt out when desired. Now we have been told that even the charity option is verboten.
