AlTech

Hi all, 

A while back I did a survey on whether not their productivity was affected by the clothes they wore.

 

Here are the results: Drumroll please................ :)

I find that the clothing I wear has no effect, I don't think about it much. Unless of course, my work clothes are strangling me while I'm doing homework, then I change.

Where you're working will have more of an affect than clothing. I could be nude and still get stuff done. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

That too. But it's inconsistent...... I'm most of the time more productive at school and sometimes more productive at home.

I've never been able to focus at home. In a working environment, I can get all my work done, at home... Oh look, Imgur.

I think clothes absolutely have an effect on contraction I'm not a guy that likes wearing a suit (other than to a wedding ect.) really can't stand them especially when trying to concentrate on somthing I much prefer either jeans and a tshirt or best case when I want no disraction "sweat pants" or joggers as I call them and a super baggy tshirt (I'm talking 2xl) 

 

i was always that kid in school getting bollocked for not having his uniform done up at school coz wearing a tie just bugs me. 

I lurk a lot

Its a little weird for me. At work I wear pretty much whatever never normally smart clothes as I spend 50% in an office and the other 50% out on the blast Furnaces. SO I just wear T-shirt, jeans and hoody. It's more the work environment that makes me more productive. However at home I can get work done although easily distracted. But if I get into lounge pants and a dressing gown. No work can be done!

It depends on what I'm doing.  When I am at work I need people to respect me and trust that what I say is correct.  So I am more productive at work when I am wearing a shirt and tie.  If I was at work in jeans and a tee shirt I would get less respect from the patients and thus be less productive.

 

When I am building something in my shop a shirt and tie would be a distraction because I would be worried about destroying good cloths.

 

I think Its about being comfortable more than the cloths your wearing.  I am comfortable wearing a shirt and tie so I have no problem working in one.

I always say I work best without pants on ;)

 

Things I've done without pants on

  • Wrote 1.5 books
  • Taught myself a new language
  • Learned some coding
  • Made websites
  • Learned photoshop and indesign
  • and the list goes on and on

At work, I feel I get the most done on casual Fridays. Suits and business clothes feel restricting (in both my genitalia region and my around my neck due to tucked in shirts)

I definitely feel less comfortable in my smart work shirt, smart trousers, leather belt and brogues (matching obviously)

 

I mean, smart yes, comfy no

I work in head office, so I dont meet customers or clients, therefore my appearance is not relevant to my job, I just have to sit around being uncomfortable all day

As a rule from observing others, I'd say putting on "work" clothes is an important part of putting yourself in the "work" mindset.  This is especially important for people who work from home, where their work and home lines can all too easily be crossed.
