Default What spare clothing do you keep at work?

What spare clothing do you keep at work and how do you store it?

I have a light sweater jacket which I hang on a wall rack in case it gets a little chilly at work. I also keep a pair of runners and spare dress shoes in a storage bench in my area.

Sometimes I think I should keep a set of business casual clothing at work for an emergency like spilling something on my clothes or my clothes exposed to something that irritates my skin. I've also considered keeping a spare suit jacket and tie in case a situation occurs where I wasn't dressed up enough. I don't have gym clothes on hand at work, but some colleagues of mine do for obvious reasons.

What do you keep on hand?

I keep a couple of sports coats. Tweed in the winter, linen or fresco wool in the summer.

Me neither. I have a pair of fire ######ant reflective coveralls in case I need to go into the field. Otherwise, I dress in layers when I go out like my mother taught me.

I work next to the core. I've ended up having to buy things like shirts when I spilt but haven't learned my lesson to keep things here.

A pair of jeans and a shirt in case I do something after work Monday-Thursday in which I don't want to wear my dress clothes.

A set of work out clothes for the gym.

About 4 pairs of shoes.

Shoes, pants, shirt (casual) and a coat.

Pretty much everything I need to sleep at my desk. Turn your socks and ginch inside out and get another day out of them.

Just shoes, that's it. And that's only during the winter when I need to go back & forth between office & "commute shoes".

Lots of women in my office seem to keep a sweater, cardigan or shawl handy on their chair.

I work near the core and occasionally get the "hey do you want to go to the game tonight" calls.

I'm not going home and I'm not going without my jersey and look like a Corporate stiff.

Besides, my office has a mandatory 'Jerseys on Game Days' policy so I just leave one here.
