Capris or Shorts

[Serpico1103]

Maybe it is me. But Steve C is the Executive Producer? Executive. And he comes to work in shorts or capris, whatever they were and usually a shirt with sleeves cut off.
Yeah, hard to understand why the company doesn't take them seriously.
Leave the wacky shirts to the talent and dress like a professional. How about full length jeans and a polo to start.

You are in a glass office with every Sirius executive. Let me know how many are wearing capris and sleeveless shirts.

Just wanted to vent.

[Death Metal Moe]

Well Steve got where he was being who he wanted to be. He's a tattooed guy who loves porn and can take a beating on air. You don't think part of him knew he was going to get fucked with for the pants? Fuck it, maybe they were comfortable.

I think Steve is perfectly content with his spot and the executives at Sirius know what kind of show O&A is, and it's not a button down shirt, suit jacket kind of show. That's why we like it.

I mean think about it, how fucking out of place would a guy in a suit be in there? It's all pooka shell necklaces, Sabbath shirts and 511 gear. Viva La Capris!

I have to disagree. I think Stunt Brain seemed to be a good producer. But, he understood that he needed to at least present a professional image.
I agree, the show, Ant, Opie and Jimmy, should wear the wacky Hawaiian shirts. The producers, especially the EP need to be more professional.
Again, when Steve C has to ask the executives for permission to do something, how well do the tattoos, sleeveless shirt, capris play when the executive is deciding whether to trust Steve C.

Dress the way you want. But, you will be treated a certain way. I don't want to see my attorney in board shorts and a tank top when I visit him in the office. Sure, khakis and a polo, ok, a suit isn't necessary. But, "trendy" capris and sleeveless shirts are not appropriate.

[Gvac]

I've never met Steve C. but he certainly sounds like a douchebag of epic proportions.

I think after the age of 25 men should realize they're not rock stars and start dressing appropriately.

[Evolved]

No straight man wears capris.

[underdog]

My company has a business casual dress code, but we're allowed to still wear shorts in the summer.

But I can't imagine a dress code in radio. Fez would have to stop wearing his sensible blouses.

I knew you would bring up Stunt Brain, but he's just one guy they had for one of the shortest runs in FM they've ever had. They've been doing quite well with their guys dressed like they are.

I understand your point about dressing for success and getting treated professionally but I just don't think the business model is the same in radio.

I think jeans and a normal tshirt might be ok. But, capris and and a sleeveless shirt are just idiotic. The EP is there for his management skills, not his unique personality, that he expresses through flame shirts and expensive nut hugging short pants.

The show does well. But, how often do they complain that management doesn't see things their way. Maybe, if they had a professional looking representative they wouldn't be treated like out of control jocks that need upper management to control them.

[Death Metal Moe]

Baba Booey dresses like a mess and Stern is the Golden Child over there.

[BlackSpider]

Why do I have a feeling tomorrow Dave will tell us how he just invented knee-length
shorts, and wants to call them "Caprorts"...?

[RhinoinMN]

No straight man wears capris.

No straight man would know what capris are.

[Foster]

Gary is a mess. But I think he is usually in jeans and a polo or regular tshirt.

BUT! Gary has that luxury. Being on the Stern show he can do as he pleases and he will get things done. If O&A feel the bosses are against them, how about trying to appear to be buying into the corporate culture.
Radio has changed drastically in the last few years. All that is left are the suits, and a few big name jocks. It is not the super casual place it used to be.

Maybe I am giving the EP too much credit for thinking its a job that deserves respect. Maybe it is just an intern with a paycheck.

[Tenbatsuzen]

There is no dress code in radio. And serpico, half to three-fourths of the suits at Sirius are either talent, former talent, or former radio sales guys. (i.e. Jon Anthony being the VP of Country programming, shit, E-Lo was talent and a PD before he got the big boy chair at XM)

They aren't stuffy suit investment bankers.

I didn't say he MUST dress a certain way. I said by not dressing a certain way he looks like an idiot.
Did E-Lo keep wearing his Hawaiian shirts when he moved from talent to management?
How many men aren't wearing suits or business casual in that office. When you move from talent you change your attire. Again, this isn't the 80's. Put down the coke, leave the ironic tshirt at home, and dress like someone in an office should dress.
Dress like an outsider, you will be treated like an outsider. Dress like a queer who thinks spending $220 on capris is a smart buy, you will be treated like an idiot.

Oh boy, I knew your "radio" experience would pop up. When was the last time you stepped into Sirius' offices? I have seen Sam interview people in the halls, the VPs, they are wearing guess what? Long pants. Even suits.

[Foster]

You're gay.

I only drive it on the weekends, and not so much during the summer

because I spend a lot of time on Fire Island

That was Matty's point, the guys in suits ARE the outsides in this environment.

[ToiletCrusher]

I don't even like capris on chicks.

[KC2OSO]

I was going to post a pic of clam diggers but all I found was lesbian porn. Go figure.

[Serpico1103]

That was Matty's point, the guys in suits ARE the outsides in this environment.

Wrong. The guys in the suits tell O&A what they can do. Sure, O&A should be wild and crazy, uncontrollable. But, then Steve C should present the image of someone who can represent the corporation well. Otherwise, the corporation will not trust him, and they will decide the direction of the show.
I guess I mishear every time O&A complain that management didn't let them do this or that. That management denies everyone of Steve's request. Yeah, must be another show.

You have to play management's game. Man.

Understood.

[Death Metal Moe]

Every time I hear Steve talked to a lawyer it's on the phone. No need to suit up for that.

I am not asking for a suit. Normal jeans, not Bon Jovi torn up jeans, and a normal tshirt.

C'mon, capris and flamed sleeveless tshirts. The guy can't dress himself, as an executive I should trust him to run a show?

[Death Metal Moe]

I think you are just really over analyzing one "Steve's Wardrobe" bit you heard today.

Fag.

[ToiletCrusher]

Fag.

Well, I guess I better take off my short shorts then.

[hammersavage]

There is no reason a man should wear capris. I didn't even know it was an option. I thought it was chicks only.

Unless you count baseball pants.

I'm very sorry he paid over $200 for those, they're jean cut offs. I got a black pair of those, $12 at Wal Mart. They're old jeans that got a little too gray, so into shorts they went.

[Death Metal Moe]

http://img.mobypicture.com/993e2b838e7c2a01f0202bf31c3dbc2e_full.jpg

Ya know what, this picture alone has turned me. I am now with Serpico1103, this guy is a fruit and O&A can't expect to be taken serious with him speaking for them.

Awful

[Serpico1103]

Holy fuck. Is he an embarrassment. Sadly, the Lane Bryant top was the most masculine part of that get up.

Nice $220 capris with basketball sneakers. Fuck. Learn to dress, or stick with the basics.

[FezsAssistant]

Maybe it is me. But Steve C is the Executive Producer? Executive. And he comes to work in shorts or capris, whatever they were and usually a shirt with sleeves cut off.

Yeah, he should be more like Fez to be more respected as EP.

I... I got nothing. Serpico's right, that's fucking AWFUL.

But for what it's worth, although I've never been in sirius, I have friends who work at Sirius, and casual to ultra casual is the norm.

When I was in radio, I had jeans and a polo shirt, but that's because I try to dress nice all the time.

[DolaMight]

holy maryfuck I heard part of the show today and I don't remember anything about a leopard skin semi-transparent shirt. That must have been added after the thrashing.

I actually loled for the first time. those are worst than they described.

He didn't show up for work dressed like that?

Slammin job by the O-Queer boys in smashing him, he put his goods for sale, he thought he was a dish, and the O-Boys sent him packin.

And yes, any man walking around with that haircut, facial hair and jean capris is gay.

[biggirl]

capris are cute on gals! That is all I wear because I hate it when I get in the car and my legs stick to the leather seat...damn it hurts.

I have never even heard of capris for guys though...that is new to me

[TripleSkeet]

I dont understand all the bitching about what another man wears to work. Hes got the fucking job doesnt he? Its not he got hired and changed overnight. He seems to be doing fine with what hes wearing and if I had a job that I could wear whatever I want to (I do and its awesome) I would wear whatever was most comfortable including shorts.

Changing his clothes wont get him any more respect at that place. They play Howard Stern ads on his fucking channel for Christs sake. You think putting on a polo shirt is gonna change that? Wrong.

[TripleSkeet]

For the record I think that fucking atrocity of a shirt is even worse then the pants. Definitely homemade too. Damn he got fat as a motherfucker again.

[razorboy]

Men wear jeans.



Jeans that cover your ankles.

[Stuft]

While i agree that paying that much for a pair of *cut-offs*, basically, is completely insane, why was this thread started by a man? What the fuck are you even paying attention to that shit for? Homo say what?


I fucking loffed and loffed @ Sam's bit on it tho, he's sucha silly bastard.

stern has been very critical of gary's attire for years ... gary did spruce things up a bit, but eventually revereted to old ways -- stern noticed and called him out on it

i think there's a natural point where taste and style should mature a bit ... what steve's wearing is pure suburban (jersey) trash, and has no place in any work environment ... you can be an individual, and creative without looking childish

[Serpico1103]

Can we have daily updates of Steve C's work attire. Maybe the public "outing" will be enough to "straighten" him out.

Throw in pics of his gf too.

How much a of a doughy slob does Steve C feel like lying next to that shredded woman?
Spend the $220 on a gym membership and some self-control therapy.

[Farmer Dave]

I'm just flabbergasted. It's radio, he didn't wear that as a way to start a bit busting his balls. It's too visual. He has less of a secret than Fez.

[Serpico1103]

Instead of starting a new Steve thread.

Is it a surprise that a man who wears sleeveless tshirts and capris to work is not treated with respect by his subordinates?

Wow. Did he try to lie his way out of taking every Monday off. Listed 6 or 7 of them, than saying "and so forth and so on," can mean nothing but, I am taking off every Monday until I give other notice.

If you have "executive" any where in your job title how are you away from your cellphone for half a day on a Monday morning? I would understand if he was scuba diving, but lying around his house, he doesn't think he should remain available in case of emergency?
