Ruining It For Everyone Else Since 2004
Can’t wear a headscarf to work? Cosplay instead!

Can’t wear a headscarf to work? Cosplay instead!

I’ve had some minor disputes with our own work attire (which has gotten a lot better these days) but this just takes the cake:

Yahoo reports that Rivas’ employer told her that “wearing her hair in a ponytail or donning a head scarf was unprofessional” (pictured, top), despite the unnamed company’s dress code simply stating that employee’s clothing needed to be “clean and pressed”.

When Rivas filed a harassment complaint over this, the boss responded by detailing the dress code to include the banning of “straps, hats, sandals, cleavage, back out, lace, and even “cultural head wraps”.

Cultural Headwraps? Oh the horror! Either way after she reported her boss to the EEOC she decided to use cosplay, it’s super effective!

I have to give her props, in her position I’d probably do the same thing.
