25 Years of Working Nude

For the first 15 years of my software development career I wore the uniform of business suit and tie. The exceptions were weekends, casual Fridays (when that became the custom), and when working at a client site where business casual was the rule. When I first starting working from home about 25 years ago, I wore walking shorts and a shirt. Basically, golf clothes. The idea of working nude was not something I had even heard of, much less considered for myself, even though I loved being nude at the beach. Because my Florida home office would get warm from the computer equipment and the direct sun, after a few months I decided to remove my shirt for comfort. I had never worked shirtless. It took a while to get acclimated. I kept my naked chest to the grindstone. Being physically more comfortable while working was something I enjoyed. It was not much longer when I decided to try working without clothes, figuring more comfort would be even more enjoyable. And it was. Another advantage of working nude is not having to make any wardrobe decisions in the morning. Get out of the shower and become a productive member of society. I dont work nude all the time. If it is not convenient due to going outside a lot because of our dogs or comfortable in cooler weather, Ill be clothed. Also, my wife now works with me from home. In the past, to foster a more professional atmosphere, I wasnt always naked at the keyboard. But over the years, with her getting accustomed to my non-sexual nudism, it doesnt seem to make any difference whether Im nude or not.
