Dianne,

We wrestled with this issue for years and came up with blue blazers rather
than shirts.  Only people dealing with the public wear the "uniform."  It
was mainly a decision of looks and versatility.  Some people shouldn't be
allowed to wear knit fabrics and blazers hide a lot of sins.  When an
employee leaves we pass them along after a good cleaning - assuming that
they are the right size.  Hope this helps.

Subject:        docent shirts/staff shirts

We're considering shirts (uniforms, gasp!) for our docents, and have been
debating the whole process.  Has anyone else gone through a similar
decision-making process for docent shirts/staff shirts?  If so, please
share your experiences, and the factors that led to your final decision.

Factors we're considering:  cost, durability (how many washes...),
professional appearance, and personal preference/comfort.  Also - if you've
had good experience with a particular vendor, let me know.

Thanks y'all,
