Other May 23

The same as in any other day (trousers, a top or a sweater, depending on the weather, trainers) especially if i’ll be working during the weekend…

Full outfit? May 23

What would a full outfit be? A suit? I can't imagine anyone would dress up to work remotely. I always dress comfortably and to suit the weather.

Very comfortable clothes May 23

Also, a pair of slippers, in cold weather like now, or Havaianas (a famous Brazilian flip-flops brand) when it's hotter. On any day, actually.

Dress-down Fridays May 23

and similar 'special days' are of any interest only to full time office employees.

Could whoever is generating poll questions finally take notice that the near totality of translators on Proz are nowadays freelancers?

BTW what would be in American English an 'honest work attire' for any day of the week? I must admit I'm puzzled - what's 'honesty' got to do with 'work attire'?

Honest? May 26

Weekend work attire: underwear and optimism, because it’s summer! 😂

“Honest” here is just internet/forum slang/humour for unfiltered truth and not a literal clothing category?
