can u wear flip-flops into work to drop off a form

I need to drop off my signed offer letter and pick up a drug test form from HR today. Problem is it is 100 degrees here in Texas.

I think its super gay that i have to put on "work" clothes to go in for 10 minutes. Dress code is very business casual in the office.

what do u guys usually wear to drop in and deal with HR? this corporate BS is grinding my gears. thanks

 

Not worth the potential, yet highly unlikely, consequences.

Truthfully, if you worked there already and your boss called you on the way to the beach and asked you to swing by to drop off some paperwork or something, then I might say, "No big deal". But being you don't technically have a job there yet, you should put your best (fully covered) foot forward and not risk it.

Regards

its a state of mind. I mean there are more than enough examples of succesfull people dressing up to work in their home or at their own firm.

 

I stopped at BB office to pick up a form from HR in shorts, t shirt and running shoes... I walked down the desk and when asked where I was going I said the gym which is across the street. Turns out a few people also work out there so it was a no brainer... I doubt anyone would care as you are still "off" and not working yet.

FYI... this was in texas as well and july heat is a mother

 

Walked into my consulting office few months ago wearing flip flops to drop off my laptop to be fixed. IT guys said it'll take an hour, so ended up waiting it out. Not the most comfortable moments hanging out in the office, especially because they were interviewing the same day. But EOD, didn't run into anyone who knew me, no one said anything, and I still have a job.
