How Dress-Codes Define The Environment

A stranger came to the door at eve, And he spoke the bridegroom fair. He bore a green-white stick in his hand, And, for all burden, care. He asked with the eyes more than the lips For a shelter for the night, And he turned and looked at the road afar Without a window light.

The bridegroom came forth into the porch With, 'Let us look at the sky, And question what of the night to be, Stranger, you and I.' The woodbine leaves littered the yard, The woodbine berries were blue, Autumn, yes, winter was in the wind; 'Stranger, I wish I knew.'

Within, the bride in the dusk alone Bent over the open fire, Her face rose-red with the glowing coal And the thought of the heart's desire.

The bridegroom looked at the weary road, Yet saw but her within, And wished her heart in a case of gold And pinned with a silver pin.

The bridegroom thought it little to give A dole of bread, a purse, A heartfelt prayer for the poor of God, Or for the rich a curse;

But whether or not a man was asked To mar the love of two By harboring woe in the bridal house, The bridegroom wished he knew.

Let’s Talk About Cricket

Cricket has been a prevalent sport in the subcontinent for a long time. It is something that the locals relate with to a great extent. Be it bowling, or batting, or fielding for a match. Interestingly, Cricket was introduced in this region from the British when they acted as colonizers. The locals picked up the sport and adopted it as if it were their own sport, thereby developing a strong conviction to it. Experts agree that youngsters living in the Weald, a region of thick forests and clear

What are Sports to Society?

We all know what sports are by definition. We have all heard of different games like cricket, basketball, football, hockey, and many more. Other people enjoy watching different sports and some people can be enthusiastic enough to never miss a game. Regardless of what sport you choose or what level of enthusiasm you show towards the game, it can be agreed that sports hold a specific meaning to society. The definition of a sport goes far beyond knowing the rules of the game. There is a greater con

Military Culture

You might have heard that different cultures exist across different ethnicities, but if you have seen some of the most classical military-based movies like “A few good men”, or otherwise have an interest in military life, then you will know that there is a completely different culture in the Military and although civilians might not be able to understand that culture, it is well practiced in the military.

You might have been asked to write an essay on the advantages and disadvantages of uniforms in middle school, and as you grew up and no longer continue to wear uniforms, the need for uniformity in outfits continues to exist in most aspects of our life. Once you start your professional life, you know that the socially acceptable outfit for interviews would be formal with ties. The acceptable attire for a lawyer is a suit. Accountants wear shirts and trousers. All offices require professional, business casual or casual formal, or uniforms as outfits. Office work would rarely allow you to show up in T-shirts or tank tops. So really, while everyone is allowed to pick their own outfits, they still have to face restrictions in terms of spoken or unspoken social expectations.

Why do you think that is? It is because what you wear represents you and where you belong. Social workers like the police, firefighters, military personnel, doctors, and nurses will always be seen in a proper uniform that makes them stand out from the business attire that everyone else wears on a regular basis. They not only represent their departments, but also reflect that they are someone who will solve your issues. They are the people that you would need to contact when you are faced with an emergency. They will be ready to help you in whatever way is possible for them and will always be available for you. That is what their outfits represent.

For others, they have to dress up for work, even though they don’t wear uniforms, and that is because they want to represent their individual intention to work. When you change your clothes into professional attire, you also change your mind to think like you are at work as a professional. You are no longer thinking like an ordinary person. You are thinking about how you can benefit your firm or do your work more efficiently. Setting that mindset in people is what dress codes are all about.
