Something happened to me at Wednesday that i thought i would never hear.
I was told by my team leader that bouncing breasts are very inappropriate in the workplace.
There had been several complains on me for a long time (she claims).
And that i from now on, always had to use a bra.
Was she right to correct me like that, should i complain on her ?

I'm thinking bras are ALWAYS appropriate in the professional setting. I even know some men that should use them!!

Well, yeah, you need a bra. Or at least a sports bra.

Wearing well-fitting underwear, both bras and panties, is imperative in the workplace. The focus should be the patient, not the employee.

Ok, first of all, I don't know how you can work without a bra. I am NOT by any means a large busted woman, but big enough that I even wear sports bras to bed. I mean, it actually hurts without support. How the heck can you WORK without one?
Secondly, um, yeah, wear a bra. Please.

definately wear a bra when you work. even if you aren't confortable in one... you really need to put one on. or atleast a tight fitting camisole that offers some coverage and support.
honestly, it really isn't professional not to have undergarments on in the workplace. it's hard to take someone seriously when their high beams are always on.....

You would seriously think that your manager is wrong in correcting you for this?
It is ridiculous that you would go to work thinking it ok to present yourself in such a way. Be professional and conscientious of who you are offending.
My reason for not wearing one, is that i get very easy shoulder pain
from the bra straps . It's not to get attention !

Bend over look at yourself in the mirror.
If you wear loose scrub tops to work, you will understand why.
