Where I live there are a lot of college males who insist upon wearing shorts, socks and sandals.  Ultimate tacky.  If your feet are cold, put a pair of shoes on those socks.

If you don't take care of your feet, then please don't subject people to them by wearing flip-flops or sandals.
 
 And since i've never been a foot-person anyways, I've never liked when guys wear flip-flops / sandals (unless you're at the beach).

Do more people tend to prefer paper, or plastic?

One time in school this asshole jock was wearing flip-flops and somebody stepped on the heel. He fell down the stairs a broke his leg and a few ribs. I wish I had been that somebody, because he really was an asshole. After that flip-flops were banned from school. hilarious!

Actually, I can wear whatever the hell I want at my gov't office. I just choose to look respectable.

As an engineer I have no fashion skills.  Our office follows simple rules, customers dress up to their level, otherwise cover the naughty bits and feet.

Heh... this dude I used to work with used to wear biking shorts to work.   And no, he did not change when he got to the office.  He was eventually fired -- not for that, but I'm sure that subconsciously, that was a factor in the decision.

This arguement is as stupid as whether one should wear their collar up or down.
 
 Personally, I love flip flops and have no problem at all with men who wear them. Sure there are ways of wearing them that are less fashionable than others but that can be said about any article of clothing. Also, there are times when wearing flip flops isn't the best choice of foot  attire.
 
 When it comes down to it, I have more of a problem with those who nitpick on what everyone else wears than anything in particular that anyone wears.

I didn't mean for this to be a pro and con flip flop argument. Though I'm enjoying the thread.
 
 My original assertion was that flip flops are not work appropriate in a professional setting, and look especially foolish when worn with business attire.
 
 I myself proudly wear Tevas in the summertime, almost always with shorts and a t-shirt, but occasionally with jeans and a t-shirt.
 
 Nothing against flip flops or sandals, just think they are completely inappropriate in a business or businss casual atmosphere.

I hope you find a new job soon.
