    I know that in comparison to business professional attire it’s sorta simple, but I really do think it’s fucked that for my first hospital job I had to go get a set of scrubs that had the company embroidered onto it and pay for that embroidering while having strict requirements of what tops were acceptable. Like you had to get a relatively recent release of a Cherokee scrub top of specific cut. Going to a nursing home position then required me to then buy a whole new set because I can’t use embroidered shit, but also they had their own colors that were part of the uniform. At least I can reuse them I suppose, but like 70 dollars for a single outfit starting from unemployment is rough not accounting for the like 200+ I spend on shoes in a year so my feet aren’t destroyed. I recently upgraded from a set of 3 scrubs rotating to a set of 4 and it’s almost like I can go a bit without doing laundry.
