To think staying in your pyjamas on stay at home days is minging?

I can do it for nearly a week, even better if a whole one ! They are the best weeks .

I said I WFH 2/3 days a week in my pjs and I really don’t care what anyone thinks. I shower every day after work (or in my lunch break) and change my clothes (or pjs) every day.. I only wear each pair once and the days I’m in the office I’m fully showered hair washed face on and scrubbed up before 8am - it’s a balance that suits me after 35 years commuting all being full time in the office I’m enjoying taking a more relaxed approach.

So, if it's not for you then fine, but why the need to judge something that doesn't impact you in the slightest?

For all you know this lady might be trying to save time - and money - on washing!?

I wear sweats/joggers, no make up and hair in a messy bun when I WFH - only proper clothes, face on and hair when I need to be 'Zoom' ready 😂

I used to do that in my twenties. Now that I am old I get into my nightclothes at about 5pm.

@Dentistlakes i hate it when people say they are disgusting if they don’t shower everyday. You have come from a place of very high privilege to be able to afford to run the water and the electric for everyone in the house to shower everyday. It is an expensive thing for people to do. So maybe check urself before making comments like this. As that will make feel feel even worse about the fact they cannot afford it.

👏 well said

I'm disabled and don't get out of the house much. I don't think it's worth getting properly dressed on days I'm not going out. I'm clean & presentable but I'm in PJs or loungewear. What difference does that make to anyone? Why do you think you have the right to judge me?

Think about those in different situations to yourself before bandying around words like minging or depressing.

I don't think it's minging and I don't actually care what other people do in the privacy of their own homes.

I wear pyjamas before bed and during the day, but rarely sleep in them. I just like to be comfy if I'm not intending on going out.

I do agree though that I'm much more productive if I make the effort to get washed and dressed.

Don't think its gross. Think its weird getting all dressed up if you are not going anywhere.

All the reasons stated above, plus wanting to read or knit or watch something on telly or keep my cats company, plus not being able to go anywhere without driving, so saving petrol, plus just wanting a break from being out every day!

I regularly spend a day at home in my night attire. Can't see what the problem is. I still get stuff done around the house.

For me it's because my normal, fit-to-wear-out clothes are either jeans or trousers like jeans - except very lightweight summer stuff, they're heavier and stiffer garments with thick seams, and I wear narrow-legged jeans. They're not uncomfortable clothes, but not things I wear to sit around at home. They're more restrictive than PJs or my at-home daywear, track pants. Top half will be a t-shirt/skivvy /shirt and jumper and same applies.

How does it affect you? It doesn't. so YABU to care.

YABU, I only do this if I’m not well so a couple of times a year most likely, however I don’t judge someone for maybe having one day a week in their pyjamas if they want to, I’d hope they change into fresh underwear in the morning though and still brush their teeth! 😂

I don't sleep in my PJs, i get up, wash and then put them on.

It’s not minging no. Lots of people have ‘pj’ days. Personally I only do it when I’m unwell, like today for example, really ill and spent all day in bed but I did have a bath and change into new pjs for tonight.
I prefer to be dressed even if staying in house as I feel like crap otherwise

No kids here but I love a day at home with no “proper clothes”. Long lie, have a leisurely bath in the afternoon, then put on fresh loungewear (stuff that could easily go to the corner shop or take my neighbour’s dog for a walk, joggers, sweatshirt, Birkenstock clogs). I sleep in a nightshirt which I change out of as soon as I get up.

I’m not comfortable like that either but I don’t look down on anyone who is.

I kind of see your point op, but to me it depends-there’s people who wear underwear with pyjamas, are they wearing the same underwear and pyjamas all day after a night in them? Plus do the kids not go outside to play? Do they not help at all with cleaning? Once off maybe ok but as you say a few days is questionable!!!

I really dont care what other people do in the privacy of their own homes and wouldnt judge in the slightest.

Personally, unless I’m ill, if im having a PJ day (which I LOVE to do and probably have at least two a month!), I prefer to shower and put on fresh PJs or other comfy loungewear. I dont really do it for hygeine or smell purposes, more the psychological aspect of feeling a bit slatternly if not.

But I dont imagine that most people stink after a day at home in the same PJs! And who on earth has time to care?!

I get what you're saying but it's literally one day, blimey.

Do you walk around at home with jeans and a shirt on, or do you wear comfy indoor leggings and a top?

YANBU. Showering in the morning and fresh clkgbes
is non negotiable unless you’re sick and even then I’ll wash and change into fresh pyjamas. It’s gross not to.

YABVU. If you think it's minging, that's your choice, but you have NO right whatsoever to judge anyone else who doesn't live by your standards.

If I were your colleague, I would purposely wear the same pajamas on all my WFH days and video call you if I got wind of your views, just to annoy you. 🤣

So are they changing their pants? Or sleeping without pants and then sitting around in PJ's with discharge over them?

Sorry but I agree, a change of clothing is a must for adults (and actually much nicer for kids too)

I agree. To each their own, but for me personally, I think the magic of soap, water and a change of clothes goes a long way to making you feel better about yourself! If I'm staying home, I might just put on leggings and a tee shirt/baggy jumper, but will definitely not be unwashed in my pjs!
