Miniskirt Biggest Eyesore at Workplace


By Bae Ji-sook

Micro-miniskirts may be pleasing on the eye to some, but they're not going down so well in the workplace, a survey revealed Monday.

Revealing clothes that show off too much leg or cleavage and women staggering in ``killer heels'' are among some of the ``eyesores" ranked by respondents to a poll run by job portal site www.career.co.kr.

In the survey of 1,254 workers, about 74 percent said they felt upset with their co-workers' attire. Around 56 percent of them cited micro-miniskirts, or a skirt eight to 10 inches above the knee, as their chief complaint.

Shirts showing cleavage, low-rise pants that reveal underwear when bending over, ``killer heels'' that exceed 10 centimeters, or outfits that are too flashy were others offered in reference to females.

Stains on shirts made up the lion's share ㅡ at 48.4 percent ㅡ among problems identified among men.

Wearing colorful underwear underneath a white shirt, slippers or sandals and sleeveless clothes to work all raised the frowns of co-workers, the survey said.

But few dare to mention their qualms those who commit a work apparel faux pas.

About 58.2 percent said they just tolerate it, while 18.5 percent said they talk about it behind the person's back. Only 12.5 percent shared their feelings with the individuals concerned, the survey added.

Shirts showing cleavage,
More proof that Korean women are too good for Korean men.

I thought for a minute that said skirts showing cleavage. 'Cos, you know, that would be too short.

Mainly because they can't get inside of it

Chubby Korean chicks stuffed into miniskirts would be a marginal improvement over chubby dazzling urbanite chicks stuffed into miniskirts.

Fat chicks should dress in potato sacks.

Wrong they should stay at home

At school at least it was always the girls who really shouldn't be wearing such things who did whilst the hot girls dressed rather normally. Maybe its the same situation in work?

That sounds implausible.  I'm sure they can turn you on, but will they really make you have an accident?

This needs pics or its worthless.
