If you are an IC, do you feel you can goto work in workout clothes ? How about if you are manager ? Say you want to finish the day with workout so you goto work in workout clothes (assuming you don’t work at Nike :)) How about on Fridays ? Do you see folks wearing Hawaiian shirt on Fridays at work ?
Depends on the city, but Seattle and maybe SF would be fine with it. You can change into gym clothes at work or gym too.
I feel dressed up wearing anything more than a tshirt and sweatpants
Fine if not smelly
Depends on company, city, region and mgr usually. But if you wore workout clothes to any office at Salesforce (which is super laid back about most things), people would just assume you don’t care, despite your words and/or actions.
Why not just change after work? Takes 20 seconds
Jeans and a T-shirt every day. Fridays shorts and a T-shirt
What has day of the week anything to do with clothes? Work out clothes are usually more comfortable so no reason to not wear them. It would be more pointless to dress up in uncomfortable clothes just to sit and type on your system
Super late sorry. On Fridays we only work until noon half the year (summer Fridays) so Fridays are very chill for the most part. And any day of the week you see many many folks in workout clothes or coming and going from runs/bike rides/gym sessions at the gym(s) on campus(s). Unless I have important meetings I definitely roll in workout clothes at least part of the time. Hope that helps!
