"Personally I always thought it unfair that women can wear basically anything we want but men get strangled with ties."
Oh nooooooooooo...I worked for MANY years and had to wear a skirt and pantyhose. I'd wear a necktie any day over pantyhose. And of course if you wear pantyhose you have to wear a certain heel. Torture.
You know if you take a job at a corn dog hut, you are signing on to wear a silly hat. I also work retail and can't tell you how many times I've been dragging a heavy fixture across the floor or been behind a cash register with my giant gold name badge and had someone ask me if I work there. I generally reply "I hope so or I'm doing alot of work for free!"
Document everything. Name names. A job is not a right. If he behaves like a 10 year old at 50 perhaps he deserves to be treated as on. You are in charge. Do not let that come into question.
