Low rider pants on nurses

[Celiabs]

It's becoming a problem in many workplaces according to yesterday's Wall Street Journal: Low rider pants.

I'm seeing some nurses wearing them, and they're steadily moving south of propriety in my opinion. Latest styles are all flared, too.

It's one thing to stand at a bar wearing them, or accept a Grammy wearing them. But in a nursing setting...?

I know it's an old post. I looked it up. There isn't really a difference. They're only gonna make scrub pants so low. I love the Dickies scrubs.

I worked with a girl on Friday who had the low rise pants on and is 5 months pregnant. Her belly hung out of the bottom of her t shirt and when she pulled the top down her boobs were half hanging out, her charge nurse mentioned it and she said guess I am gonna have to buy a size bigger my boobs are growing as fast as my belly....I was like "you think"

With pants...I think if you can bend over and see your underwear, they are too low.

I am long wasted, and I cannot tell you how hard it is for me to find a pair of khaki's or jeans (and no, not "Mom" jeans)..that just sit on top of my hips, and not below.

Because of my long waist, if I wore these "low rise" pants, they don't cover my underwear, or heck, let's be honest...the majority of my private parts in front for that matter ( I am not exaggerating)...and that wouldn't be professional in a hospital, or any professional setting.

Times have never changed so much, that people should be able to readily tell if you buy your panties at Victoria's Secret or Wal-Mart.
