I have just posted this so that we can get this most important and pressing issue over the 300 post mark, garnering the respect it deserves!!!
Dear oh dear.........
Dear oh dear.........
What an amazing can of worms the simple original post opened.Personally I really dont mind if people inappropriately dressed in the QP or elsewhere.But like JohnK I do take dress into account.If say I was thinking of changing accountants and a fellow turned up in his boardies I would think to myself -well he isn't concerned with my feelings with his dress,would he consider my feelings with his work.A tradie would not have to meet as high a standard-though those that drive like a lunatic on the roads with their names emblazoned on their vehicles woulkd not be considered with a similiar feeling on my part.
Just interesting for the Teva wearers-here in Coober Pedy they are worn by 2 groups-grey nomads and backpackers.Both groups certainly associated with the word casual,but smart?
To each his/her own.
Had to thaw out!Gee...bit of a temperature difference between Coober Pedy and Antartica.
I think you will find the majoirty of people will cast judgement on someone's appearance when they do not know the person and they need to have personal dealings with them.What an amazing can of worms the simple original post opened.Personally I really dont mind if people inappropriately dressed in the QP or elsewhere.But like JohnK I do take dress into account.

Also as you state if you want to be successful in business then first looks are very important and if your dress standards do not meet certain standards then that can be harmful to your business.
Would anyone go for a job interview in stubbies, singlet and thongs?
Would you send your child to a rundown day care centre where the carers wear stubbies, singlets and thongs and have visible tatoos and body piercings?
Would you go to a wedding in anything less than a suit? If you did it would need to be at least smart casual.
So why drop those dress standards when visiting lounges and travelling?
That is totally OK. You do not need to agree with me.*shakes my head* I can't agree with you on that

I am sick of slobs & yobbos..what bloody next....bare chests & board shorts?
Piss off & get back to cattle class where you belong!
Do you guys ever get even remotely dressed up for anything???....(& I'm talking casual dacks, shoes, socks & a polo shirt will do)..were not talking the Birdville Pub here, so get a bloody grip
I joined QC to get away from you lot, but sadly due to the way you yobbos treat it is slipping all round

I travel for leisure so I won't wear a suit to enter a QP, however, I like the restaurant rule. I'll always wear a shirt with a collar (polo shirt) and then depending on climate either nice jeans (read no holes) or dress shorts with smart casual shoes.
Despite this, whilst in the BNE QP today manged to see one gentleman in a hawaiian shirt and thongs :shock: and also did see someone in a flannelette shirt :shock:

What, 32pgs of qualitative feedback on the topic isn't enough for youWhy not run a poll on this subject of Q lounge dress standards, would make interesting stats.
