But today one of my colleagues said in our group chat (paraphrased):

"I just got a call from a woman with IE problems. I asked her to check the connection of the network cable at the back of the computer and she put me on hold for a moment. She came back and said 'I'm wearing inappropriate clothes to do that. I'll call again tommorow'. I should've asked her what time she got off work"

Haha

I kind of took it as she was wearing a very short skirt or something.

Does it amuse you that every time I had to climb a ladder and check the overhead wiring (so not in my job description, by the way) I was invariably wearing a short and heels. Nothing unprofessional, just nothing designed to be climbing over or under anything.

It pretty much always works out that way, doesn't it?
I used to have the same problem.

I see nothing offensive or inappropriate about the post; however in the comments:

lighten up slightly folks.

er, at least, it was implied.

trying to nip any potential issues in the bud, but I may have been too hasty.

IGNORE THE MAN WEARING THE SPACE HELMET! ;)

Same problem with crawling into dusty places while wearing a suit :/
