What Should I NEVER Wear to My Entry-Level Job?
Kayla Baxter, Anna Hennings, and Alice Handley
Fanny Packs
Why not?
The fanny pack went out of style way back in the 80s, taking side ponytails and neon brights along with them. Sporting a fanny pack in a professional environment shows you have no idea what’s in fashion – whether you consider yourself style savvy or not – while also giving your look a big case of the casuals. You’re not on vacation in 1983, so lose that vinyl fanny pack! Besides, how many things do you need to carry with you while you’re treating patients or taking x-rays?
Try me instead:
Just about any handbag, clutch, satchel, tote, even a briefcase, will do the exact same thing as a fanny pack: Hold your essentials.

I feel like this just made my day. Especially the "exception" categories.

These were too funny. I worked in a corporate office and was surprised to see how many people wore flip flops.

I have to admit, much of these items should not just apply to an entry-level job. It should be applied to out in the normal world as well!

Franklin, your hat is pretty cool, but that doesn't mean you should wear a scrunchy.

I may have worn short shorts before at Arby's but nobody can say anything bad about this hat!
