I had a vaguely similar thing when I used to work for Comet: I wore a blue shirt (warehouse and stores), whereas the salespeople wore red shirts. Of course, customers didn’t know the difference and would regularly accost me to ask for advice about various appliances. I was shite.

Comet also used to give out these mini (3.5"?) demo CDs with sample tracks for demonstrating hi-fis. The one I had in the stores had two tracks: some MOR nonsense like the Lighthouse Family, and this colossal tune:

When I worked at Sainsbury’s on the Meat & Fish counter aged 16/17.

Purple trousers, purple waistcoat, purple and orange bow tie, big white apron and a white hat with a hairnet in. (wasn’t allowed to cut the net out).

This was mildly more embarrassing than my failure to get the smell of fresh fish off my fingers (oo-er) before a night out, trying to impress the laydees.

black dress shirt when I did a single shift at Wetherspoons as an 18 year old.

edit: actually that’s bullshit. I dressed up as this promotional ear in Waterlooville for the day, handing out lens cleaners and leaflets when I was 15.

Job Title: Promotional Ear would really get your attention in an advert wouldn’t it

what is it with workplace fleeces. I reckon about 85% of all fleeces are work uniforms.

Once I was catering a dinner for a US “Millionaire’s Club” package tour thing at Windsor Palace, and they’d adopted a Medieval/Renaissance Faire theme, with a guy playing a lute in the corner of a banquet hall, whole roast pigs and everything. About an hour before we started serving it was announced that we had to wear tabards and tights (a bit like this) to fit in with the overall vibe. Maybe codpieces were involved as well.

Quite humiliating in hindsight, but I thought it was a laugh at the time, and regret not taking any pictures. I wonder if the millionaires left thinking that this is just how the English live their lives…
