Ever reprimanded at work/school for something you wore?

This morning I threw on one of many black t-shirts in my drawer before rushing out the door to work. After talking with a few users and seeing their eyes dart to my chest and back again I realized I wore my "I DYSLEXIA <3" t-shirt.

This is the most conservative company I've ever worked for by far. I don't think I'll get in trouble but who knows.
 
Just tell them you got mixed up and wore the wrong shirt because of your dyslexia. You have a good humor about your dyslexia.
 
I was told by the HR guy at the time that I shouldn't wear my "I solve my problems through violence" shirt, 30 seconds after the secretary chuckled and said "I like your shirt."

I can understand that.
 
This reminds me how today I was at the post office and there was a post office employee with full size head phones (kind that cover your ear) around her neck and wearing a shirt that said "one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, four" then something about Cancun below it.

I'm not prude but didn't think it was the most appropriate shirt to wear for a government worker, while at work.

gov' work is the most conservative of all, except they don't have enough cajones to talk about the "cleavage" issue
 
lol one of the techs where I work had a "no, I will not fix your computer" shirt on. I wonder if that would be appropriate for church. I always get people at church wanting me to fix their computers. I have at least one pc to fix per week.

I wonder if the excuse that I'm a server guy now, would work. "Sorry, I'm a server tech now, I don't touch workstations. Union thing."

honestly?

Boobs.

There, I said it.
 
Wore a tshirt with a fake college name of STFU. It was a saturday so less than half the staff was in so nobody besides IT said anything. I don't think I'll wear it on casual fridays though.
 
My neighbor bought me a shirt that says "I Only Date Crack Whores". I wore it to school one day and my teachers just laughed.
 
I wore my Stiff Records t-shirt to work one day; it was half way through the afternoon before my boss realized the slogan around the disc on the front read:

If it Ain't Stiff
It Ain't Worth a Fuck

I had to turn my shirt inside-out to finish the day. I'm certain that day was one reason they decided not to retain me at the end of my new-employee probation.

Yes, I did this during my first fortnight at a new job.
 
Better than wearing the shirt that my color blind friend has and says "Fuck the Colorblind" in one of those patterns that only color-seeing people can see.
 
I was told to change my khaki cargo pants at lunch at my last job cause they were too baggy. There were pretty baggy but I very rarely interacted with a customer, and then it was usually sitting down anyway.

My six year old's soccer coach wore that his first day of practice.
Classy!
