and theres no one at work you enjoy having a look?

I don't work with any single men that are close to my age or that I'm attracted to....and by that I don't just mean physically attracted to. So much more goes into making a person attractive. Maybe my dress code would change if such a guy worked in my building.

I get to show my goods on a competitive dance floor - AND get rewarded for it! At work I like to be very professional and taken seriously, so no showing the goods at work, unless you count a nicely tailored suit that shows off a nice silhouette "showing the goods". I never display cleavage or very short skirts at work. It's just not appropriate. There's a time and place for everything and work isn't the place for that.

This is why women cannot get ahead...

Seriously, 'men' do you show your butts? Or other parts?

It's work, not a peep show...

IMO unless you work at Hooters keep yourself dressed properly. I mean, yeah, when I was 18, maybe I did but not now.

There's nothing more pathetic than old hags wearing short skirts, minishirts and whatever..

Have some dignity.

It's the workplace. You don't play at work, but there is no reason not to have a group lunch or get together for bowling or a card game where you can all get to know each other better.

And leave it to the men to be the first to say the woman who DOES show the goods off at work is anything but a "lady." And if that's what it takes to get ahead, then the wrong people have been promoted all along.
