What do I wear to my first day of work at jcpennys?

Question

I just got hired at jcpenney and I completely forgot to ask what the dress code is there. What do I need to wear on a day to day basis?

Answer 1

I don't work at JC Penny's, but I'll tell you my opinion.  I figure it's safest to wear a nice shirt, preferably a solid colour shirt with no logos or designs...I'd recommend a nice black tshirt, if you have one.

Also, nice pants - I can't say I've ever noticed sales people in department stores wearing blue jeans.  If you have any dress pants that are black or tan those would be best.  If you don't, then at least black jeans.  

It's your first day, they can't expect you to know everything already.  Just ask when you first get into work, "Is what I'm wearing appropriate for working here?"  Or take note of what the other employees are wearing.

Or better yet - go in there before your first shift and take a look at what the employees are wearing, and try to mimic that.

Good luck!
