Uniforms vs. Plain Clothes


There are pluses and minuses to having a uniform. The most important factor to having a uniform is the fact of uniformity. Everyone looks the same, professional. I spent thirteen years in the navy and wore a uniform everyday. It was always pressed, haircut within regulation, boots polished, and shaved. My appearance showed my leaders that I took the time to look professional, so it set me up for taking on leadership roles. With plain clothes, everyone has their own style. I am a biker, blue jeans, T-shirt, and boots I am happy. Dressing this way doesn’t separate me from anyone else. As a matter of fact, I believe there have been times it has hindered me. I will never know but I continue to strive to look professional.
