    I used to work for a manager who approached me one day to inform me that wearing shorts and flip flops to work was inappropriate.

    I was working as a software engineer, I didn’t interact with customers, and spent my entire day at the back of the building with other engineers.

    I asked if I could wear skirts and open toe heels like the woman in our office. He made it clear that wouldn’t be tolerated because he “didn’t want to see that.”
