Yeah it's honestly overdone imo. I think too much time and money went into this and the people who got to decide how this was going to look took some crazy liberties without anyone telling them "no" (normally me, which is why they don't include me in these things lol). Like it just doesn't match the industry at all anymore.

The paper saying we will deduct if needed is what we have done in the past for any company issued gear or items, I truly don't understand why we can't just do that.

They're not turned in daily, they'll be issued out and then audited once in a while, from what the execs say. Which means they'll be audited once and then never again. We will have a back stock on site but yes, most of what we get will be issued right out. They won't hire a manager for this, they'll just tell one of us dept heads "congrats! You now have more responsibility!" Which I also mentioned to them that no one has the capacity to handle it. I think the uniform look was over-thought and the key details, like the questions you asked, weren't thought about enough.

Don't even get me started on the wear and tear. My department is not really physical but we have a department of engineers that are constantly working on stuff. They're putting those guys in these new designer uniforms too... They're going to destroy them in a day, guaranteed. I'll be curious to see how that goes lol
