What is it you can't face?
When I was a service engineer for a company the boss decided that the correct attire would be white shirt, tie and black trousers and shoes.
After a while I got fed up with shirts getting ruined by toner every five minutes and trousers torn so I started bunging in claims for £100 per month for ruined clothes which upset them immensely. The final straw came when I dropped a fuser unit on my foot and was off work for a week.
When I went back I adopted black cords, a black polo shirt and steel toe-capped boots and the dress code was quietly forgotten. I think I looked a damn sight smarter being able to turn up to a job inconspicuously filthy than having to turn up at the second job of the day obviously covered in the crap from the first.
