The veterinarian I worked for wore Elvis scrubs. I have to say it was a rather crushing blow when I realized I would not be able to wear glorified pajamas to work and have to show up in dress pants and uncomfortable shoes. I too find absurd to wear nice clothing to wrestle rottweilers, and if I can get away with it at all, I will wear scrubs in simple professional colors (light blue and light green seem to look very doctorly) to work. I also have these glasses that make me look ten years older, and not in a bad way. Maybe I can earn respect by forcing them to pronounce my last name correctly, instead of calling me "Dr. Julia".
But I'll probably end up dressing up for the same reasons you do.
