We get away with casualness in my company for several reasons, a couple
of which are:
1. Montana, as a whole, is a much more casual state than many others.
Even the governor is known to wear jeans on occasion. <g>
2. My department deals mostly with data, and virtually no face-to-face
interactions with clients (that's what the Implementation Dept is for
<g>...they're the ones who go out to districts and do training, or train
in-house, and you can definitely tell when it's happening, because they
all sprout dress pants and ties).
3. My particular job (as a Data/project manager) involves a fair amount
of client contact, but again, it's not face-to-face. I need to know
client-speak, etc., but they don't have a clue as to what I look like,
nor do I, they. Works okay with me, especially on hot summer days like
this, when the air conditioning isn't working as well as it should, and
the temp inside the building is somewhere in the 80's. Definitely
easier to deal with if I'm not forced into a suit and pantyhose....

I wonder if there is a trend that if a person is in a job that produces
something tangible, they can dress more casually? The professional dressed
ones are either managers, or sellers of the product, but don't produce anything.
