From my experience yes
It’s why they say “operations” now

We still say back office but it’s typically operations in writing

I think it had more to do with the person saying it.

Within operations we even have a “middle office”
Basically for people that didn’t go to good schools start there (some stay because that’s what they like)

That’s what I did. Front office doesn’t look at big state schools like USC
Gotta put in the time first

Whatever can double as office attire as well as golf attire ... you never know when the call for an “emergency 9” will come.

oxfords from Stacy Adams


Never again. Made the mistake of not being an OT baller and having a cobbler custom make my shoes. But really, spend the extra money to not have to wear Stacy Adams shoes.

You definitely have the “i try way too hard” vibe if you try that hard with your office attire.

I'm usually with you but I don't think I've ever seen this type of dude (braided belt, colored VH shirt) wearing a double monk strap from anywhere. I'm down to shite on Cole Haan some too, but those dudes are not buying Cole Haan.


That’s because OP is actually a manager at Red Robin.

You really know this board is full of plant baws when something as simple as back office is confusing af.

The best part about that shirt/tie combination is that it comes together in the same box.

Finally I can look like a hundred dollars without having to spend a hundred dollars.

I have to take off my tie and name tag when I get off work otherwise my trips to the grocery store have people thinking I’m a manager.
So back office attire also = grocery store manager attire
