I’m scouting for jobs I’d actually enjoy working at as opposed to just “getting a job cus I should get a job”. I’m 20 btw, not independent yet, but I’d still like to have a job ya know? The only Job I know of that is mega lax with their dress codes are (i think) Hot Topic and Spencer’s. Do you guys have any other places that are similar? I’d like to be able to express my Alt-fashion choices :D

(Please dont be rude or mean in the comments, thank you!)

      I worked in an actual call center in my 20s and, aside from the interview where it’s advisable to dress somewhat nicely, we were mostly free to wear whatever we wanted as long as it kept all the appropriate bits covered enough.

          Generally yes and generally no, in that order. At least in the call centers I worked where one could wear about anything. At my shirt-and-tie job, generally yes and yes.

          I should note that I haven’t lived in the US in years, so I don’t know what things look like today.

          I made money in a call center when I was 19. It sucked because we found out we were lied to and we were ripping people off thinking we were offering the great prices on long distance service. But maybe tech support wouldn’t suck.

        Dude- this is my second post here on Lemmy. I asked for people to be nice and I suppose you didn’t bother to read that. I’m not a fucking “anime character” I’m autistic as shit. I find comfort- as a black girl- in being able to express my love for Kawaii fashion. I want a job that will allow me to express these values as they mean a lot to me AGAIN- as a black person. If thats a problem with you then please just move on to a different post. At the very least just ask me some questions first before going off and judging me like that.

            Yea- Im not entirely sure what their deal is. I guess because I use text emojis they assume me to be some kinda Main-Character Manic anime girl. I’m not even in any anime subs to begin with- Bleagh. I’m sure comments like his arent gonna be common here(I hope)
