Good idea? Nurses, waitstaff, cooks now wearing dark/black clothing.

Asked by Naked_Whale_Tamer (400points) February 7th, 2014

Once upon a time, nurses and people in the restaurant industry wore pure white uniforms/clothing to show that they were clean.

I’ve noticed that that’s changed and uniforms/clothing are very dark to hide dirt.

At one restaurant I used to go to, the chefs used to wear tall pure white hats. When they started wearing short totally black hats I asked an employee why they changed the hats. Answer: To save on cleaning costs.

Are you comfortable with nurses (or other medical personnel) who are attending to you when they wear very dark clothing that hides dirt/blood?
