Manager: We need to suspend Alex immediately.
HR: That’s serious. What happened?
Manager: He keeps coming to work dressed casually despite multiple warnings.
HR: Casually how?
Manager: Jeans. Open shoes. No formal office wear.
HR: Okay. How’s his performance?
Manager: Very good.
HR: Meeting deadlines?
Manager: Yes.
HR: Any quality concerns?
Manager: None.
HR: Any client complaints?
Manager: No.
HR: So what exactly is the issue?
Manager: He refuses to follow the dress code.
HR: What does he say when you raise it?
Manager: He says, “As long as I complete all my assigned tasks perfectly, I don’t think anyone should be concerned about my dress code.”
HR: And does he complete all his assigned tasks perfectly?
Manager: Yes… but that’s not the point.
HR: Then what is the point?
Manager: Standards. If we allow this once, others will start doing it too.
HR: So you want to suspend one of your top-performing employees over jeans?
Manager: Yes. Two weeks.
Two weeks later…
Remember when Arsenal were the joke?
Now rival fans need us to lose a Champions League final on penalties just to enjoy their season.
What a turnaround. 👏🏾
My advice to the younger generation. Question every system. Marriage, education, employment, contemporary businesses,tax ,politics , police, law and order , religion, social dynamics . Dnt follow and obey blindly it doesn't work.
