Just out of curiosity - has anyone received a "dressing down" as a result of not dressing down?  

Last place I worked instigated a dress down Friday policy.  I chose to stick with work clothes - I like being able to go home at the end of the day and switch from work catsy to casual catsy.  One manager told me, in no uncertain terms (and loud enough that several others heard) that I was "letting the side down", and if we didn't all adhere to the new policy, the right to dress down on Fridays would be withdrawn!

I ignored him (he was a grumpy g-t at the best of times).  Needless to say, policy was not withdrawn, and in fact later extended to cover the entire week.

NB: I finally caved in and started dressing down on the same day that I handed in my resignation, by which time I just didn't care any more!
