| Quote: | CANBERRA (Reuters) - One of Australia's largest banks apologized on Monday for a "grooming handbook" that suggested staff wear flesh-colored underwear and advised against shiny stockings because they make legs look fatter.
The grooming guide -- which also recommended that earrings should be no bigger than a small coin and that women should wear no more than two rings on each hand -- was given to retail banking staff at the Commonwealth Bank.
"The guidelines are just that -- guidelines," bank executive Hugh Harley said in a statement. "I apologize to any staff who may have been offended or who do not feel comfortable discussing such matters." |

My guess is that they'd hope that women would think, "I don't have that" and just go commando.
WACKY ARTICLE ALERT. Good find.
probably something like. "well if their skirt slips up, at least they wnt be wearing a black lacy thong" How about they simply do what everybody else does? Put in a dress code, but not about underpants for heaven's sakes!
