no shirt, no shoes, no service. why?
Obviously this is in the window of McDonalds. But a lot of other places have it as well. Why?
Sure, seeing someone's man teats is unappealing while I eat. Not sure I understand the shoes thing? Lots of people wear flip flops or sandals. I always thought this was about "hygiene" but I'm wondering if it has more to do with people slipping on the freshly mopped tile. Anyone know? Last edited by VaSteve; 08-03-2013 at 11:16 AM.. |

Sanitation/hygiene is indeed the reason. Plus it culls out unwanted types. Good policy.

Stepping on something that could cut their foot, then sue business.
Etiquette.

Flip-flops are okay. "No shoes" means no bare feet.
While pretty unfathomable to many today, in the small town where I was a kid, it was very common for people to be out about town barefoot all Summer long. |

Ah yes, the dumbing down of America, slowly and surely. Do it your own backyard, not in a place to eat.

Get off my lawn!

Long long ago when I went to first grade in Hawaii I went to school all year with no shirt or shoes. I almost never wore a shirt or shoes.
