You get double your salary, but have to do your job naked

    If you were made this offer in your current job would you take it up?

    Your colleagues would be made the same offer, so you wouldn't necessarily be the only naked one.

    It would be really tempting for me, as I could well do with the extra cash at the moment but as I work in a big open plan office it would just be too embarrassing and uncomfortable.

    I reckon if you made people this offer around Europe you'd get a good percentage of takers as they seem more relaxed about nudity than us Irish.

    Thread inspired by some program I saw on Channel 4 before about office workers going to work naked as an experiment, not sure they got extra money though :pac:

    My office is nice and warm so I'd definitely do it.

    I'm also getting to that stage in my life where I am happy to wander around naked in the gym changing room and talk to people so can't see there being an issue transferring that over to the office

    What the hell happens to older men in relation to changing rooms, people under the age of 50/60 seem to be able to go from

    Work out gear > Shower > Towel Down > Dressed fairly easily.

    Over that age it seems to be

    Work out gear > Shower > Stand around naked for a while > Towel Head (naked) > Put leg up on bench, Towel groin and legs for 10 minutes > Talk to friend (while naked) > Get Dressed.

    Not wanting to look at old mens junk doesn't make you a conservative prude, changing rooms are for changing not a nudist convention :mad:

    Ah yeah sure why not. I think too many people are preoccupied with their body. Just get it out and get on with it already.

    No way. I work with the public.

    Considering I am happy to strip in the gym changing room, but by god, thank F women are not like men and they don't hang.... around chatting naked.... Get dressed as quick as possible, after legging it to the shower....

    No amount of money would do it for me, no matter how desperate, its just not worth it

    Most definitely not self absorbed nor preoccupied with my body.

    There are just some things not worth sharing with other people, this is one...

    I have no problem with being nude, but double my salary is nowhere near enough for me to have to see my colleagues naked. Though one or two I'd look at for free :)

    F*ck no, I teach teenage boys, it's bad enough with all their hormones flying around everywhere without adding naked teachers to the mix!

    If I worked in an office I probably would.

    No bother, all bodies are beautiful.

    However, I fear I may be paid even more from my colleagues to remain fully clothed.

    This reminds me of a story that a junior nurse once posted, She was up in front of the matron for something that she had done wrong!
    One of the other more senior nurses suggested that while getting rollicked that she just imagined the matron naked!
    She had a severe telling off, but had difficulty keeping a straight face!
    She came out and burst out laughing, rather than crying as she would have done if she hadn't followed the advice.

    Feel protected? You wouldn't be long horsing on a thick hoodie, heavy trousers and steel-toe boots if you were getting showered with molten metal droplets..:D If you turned up naked, double the salary wouldn't help ease the sizzling burns..I doubt too many people would fancy wandering around a building site in the nip either..especially in the lashing rain and cold..

    This might be one for the Office staff..:D

    It would be alright in an office though, unless you heard something like this

    On the shore it would be fine with me, I'm usually semi naked anyway.

    Hah I would do it for free is asked - so money would be nice too :p

    I have no problem being naked around my home whoever is there - so doubt doing so in work would be much of an issue.
