R&D teams within HP Enterprise Services received memos this week reminding them about the company's rules regarding workplace fashion. "If you aren't dressed like the models in the posters that HP displays around its locations, then your appearance is sapping the productivity of the workers around you," was one summary of the memo by an anonymous source. Many employees have become comfortable wearing t-shirts and shorts on a regular basis, and it is believed that "scruffy-looking" engineers might alienate visiting customers.

Here's the checklist:
- black t-shirt
- ponytail
- sandals
- weird laugh
- lots of references to science fiction authors and movies
Scoring: one point for each item on the list. If they don't have at least 4, then get them out of there - they don't know anything about software.
