I am a male teacher in a catholic girls’ school. There are about 20 male teachers in a staff of 100. Six months after I take the job my crazy boss decides that she wants all male staff to wear ties. Our female colleagues all dress decently but certainly not at a “corporate” standard. We have protested, our union has too and I (sadly alone) have consistently refused to wear a tie. I dress neatly and professionally at all times, usually in a suit.
