    yeah… “a lot of pressure” translates to “you don’t get hired” if it’s clear you’ll refuse or make a fuss about it or “they make your job painful every day” if you’re already hired and refuse. It depends on the industry and company but it’s pretty standard in most customer facing jobs. It was much worse 20 years ago than it is today

      Ya, I kind of gathered that from the way it was described but this wasn’t even remotely customer facing. Not that it makes it ok in customer facing jobs either but it blew my mind.

        ooof then yeah, she’s being pressured into being eye candy for the managers, disgusting

        And yep, the only people that care about such things are the wrong people. I had a lawyer show up to an online meeting with me with like a white t-shirt or something super casual like that, he apologized, I couldn’t have cared less because either way he’s super polite and I’m there to get his knowledge and not have him look good for me.
