When you go to a job orientation, & you're instructed to dress "casual", what's the proper thing to wear?

You don't have a pair of khaki pants? Go to Target or Walmart or Ross and get some cheap...like under 15.00, believe me you probably will need to wear them again in your adult life. As for a top I recommend no "hoodie" at any cost...this is too casual not for work unless you work on the docks somewhere... wait are you trying to get work on a dock? Forget everything I just said and go with hoodie and crocs...you will do fine!
