Why Are Occupation Costumes Popular?

/in , /by

Every year we see some of the most popular Halloween costumes like a clown or a doctor. It makes sense why people would dress up as something scary like a clown on this occasion, but why a doctor?

Why do you think people like to wear occupation costumes?

Everyone has their own theory as to why people wear occupation costumes, but at Service Uniform we have it figured out. It’s because people respect the people that wear those uniforms.

Think about it, people like to dress up as doctors for Halloween because they get to put on the alter-ego of someone who saves lives. How cool amazing would it be to save lives for a living?

Happy Boss’s Day!

/in /by

Have you learned a lot at your current job? Do you feel excited to come to work every day? If you have a question, does it get answered? If you answered yes then you may have one awesome boss! Wednesday October 16th is Boss’s Day and we at Service Uniform want to remind you to thank your supervisors and managers.

Boss’s Day started in 1958 with Patricia Haroski. Patricia was a secretary who worked for her father at State Farm Insurance. She chose her father’s birthday as the date for the holiday and registered with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Boss’s Day has traditionally been a day for employees to thank their bosses for being kind and fair throughout the year. Some people like to give their bosses cards, certificates or flowers. Writing a personal note about how much of an inspiration they’ve been to you or what you have learned while working with them is also a great way to celebrate.

So what do you do if you’re having a hard time with your boss? Well, don’t forget that they’re people too, so take Boss’s Day as an opportunity to improve your relationship with them. Take your boss out for coffee or lunch and try to understand their position and workload. Whatever you do, don’t act fake or force excitement. Boss’s day is not the appropriate time to try and get a promotion or a raise. Being personable and honest is a great way to stand out.

Why Do We Wear Costumes On Halloween?

/in , /by

Halloween is an old tradition that almost every household participates in. But how did it start and why do we wear costumes?

Service Uniform

It’s hard to figure out the exact origins of Halloween, but if you look online you’ll find stories from ancient pagan, Celtic, Catholic and Roman traditions. One thing all of those traditions have in common is that Halloween is a time of superstition.

Take the ancient Celts for example. One theory explains that Halloween originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, where people would light bonfires and dress up in costumes to scare off roaming ghosts and spirits. They believed that on Halloween, ghosts came back to Earth and would haunt anyone who left their homes. So they wore masks in hopes that the ghosts would mistake them for other spirits.

Well it’s 2013, and there aren’t many people left who believe in ancient spirits. Today people wear costumes for fun and amusement.

At Service Uniform, that makes perfect sense to us. Costumes are like uniforms, they make you feel like a different person. Superhero costumes are popular this time of year because people love to feel powerful and in control. Well, shouldn’t you feel like that every day?

We don’t believe in ghosts, but we do believe that a good uniform rental program should empower you and your company. We’re in the business of renting professional garments and related services to established companies because we’re good at it. We know that our customers demand superior quality products that make them feel like superheroes.
