Bad Job, Worse Uniform

rdfs:comment

Sometimes, working as a Burger Fool just isn't embarrassing enough. Sometimes, the humiliation ante must be upped-- that's where this trope comes in. Where most part-time jobs are content with just making their employees wear a polo shirt and a nametag, this one adds some sort of embarrassing accessory: A stupid hat, a stupid shirt, or a really bad colour scheme. Some places take it further, making their employees wear a whole costume full of embarrassment. But whatever the case, the outfit makes the workers stand out, and makes the character wish they were dead.

Some places take it further, making their employees wear a whole costume full of embarrassment. But whatever the case, the outfit makes the workers stand out, and makes the character wish they were dead. Often in the form of a (not) Nice Hat at a restaurant, mainly a costume elsewhere. If the job is as a Mascot at an Amusement Park or Suck E. Cheese's, this is a given. Can overlap with No OSHA Compliance if the job involves cooking and the costume limits visibility, ability to grasp objects or has a tail. Interestingly, one way to determine if your work clothes are tax-deductible is "if you'd be embarrassed to go to the bar in them". Examples of Bad Job, Worse Uniform include:
