Proper attire
 
Do I really see an official working the Ohio State - Wisconsin game wearing shoes with a white Nike logo visible? Is all black required? I always thought it was. I know it's picky, but attention to detail counts in my book.

Believe me, if his assigner cared, you wouldn't see it.

Yes, you're right! Also, he was wearing beltless slacks and his shirt did NOT have a Byron collar!

It does say all black shoes in the books, but not many shoes are sold all black. And just like anything else in life, the higher you are on the food chain and the more people in power do not care when they have a top person working for them.

This should be a boilerplate statement to cover many of the threads, and posts, that we see here on the Forum.
