Down & Out DOT COM
Many years ago I worked for a "new media" company, basically a web production outfit selling overpriced sites to companies convinced it would make them huge international traders overnight. The boss was a total arsehole and did a good job of upsetting numerous staff so the turnover was reasonably high.

However this 90's media whore of a man was obsessed with company image/branding. Every member of staff had to wear work issued polo shirts with the logo emblazoned upon it, likewise he got the logo everywhere he could for publicity in the interests of publicising the clean image of the company.

After leaving the company "Someone" gave their work polo shirts to the dirtiest, scruffiest, special brew drinking tramps and pissheads that could be found at the train station.

As you can imagine it wasn't long before clients were asking in meetings why beggars/drunks/societies worst were dressed in the company uniform.
As for stopping this blight on the company image? ....Lets face it, you can hardly ask a homeless guy to give you his shirt can you?

Love it!
In fact, I may have to steal the idea. My last workplace had similarly shite management, and I've still got some uniform...

I used to work for a swindling cuntish excuse for an employment agency, and got issued with two of their polo shirts.
Now I wish I hadn't chucked them out, and that there were more tramps in my neighbourhood.

There is an alternative.... Just get a regular polo shirt and write in market pen "So & So agency is SHIT!" on the shirt, then offer a homeless guy £5 to wear it round town for a few weeks ;-)
