Diapers and work.

[Jeremiah]

I am curious what your thoughts on these. Is wearing diapers to work acceptable? Should diapers stay home? How would this affect job performance?

Personally, I rarely ever wear to work and find myself less social on those days.

I wear Drynites to work every day. reason for drynites is cause they are so cute and comfy and dont really make any noise. No one (that I know of) suspects a thing, and as for job performance, I doubt it would affect anything. Now be in mind, I don't 'use' my drynites at work, I leave that for home......

I've worn pull ups to work on many occassions but only use them for leakage under those conditions.

Well I don't have a job yet but when I do I assume I will be working at a battery shop that sells all sorts of car/truck/marine batteries. So its in a warehouse sort of location and its always very slow or very busy. Though I guess when I am working there I will be delivering the batteries. Most of the people are either farmers or people off in the boondocks on islands in the delta. So I think wearing would help if I was out driving around.

If I was working for a computer shop or a video game shop I don't it would be useful at all mainly since you get breaks anyway.

I think wearing to work is OK, as long as you don't stay wet and smell, I don't think others would accept that, but just wearing a diaper, I think thats fine.

Being 24/7 I don't have much of a choice when it comes to wearing to work. I don't think it effects my job performance negatively. If anything it lets me work more b/c I'm not taking potty breaks. LOL

I know some people at work have noticed my diapered state. It is really hard to ignore since I crinkle some and these Secures are super loud when changing... you can hear the tapes a room away. Noone has said anything yet.

They can't fire you at work or anything if you wear diapers b/c of the Americans With Disabilities act. You can claim incontinence if you want. From what I've read most employers won't even question it b/c you can get into sensitive areas and potential lawsuits & etc.

I haven't had a single problem with it.

I don't work, when I'll work I'll probably never wear them to work because I'm not Brave enough. So, for me, they'll stay at home

I don't think I would ever wear at work because of where I work, but at my day job, I have to swipe a time card. I have the card because of what I call the Walmart law, and the card is actually for our protection. For a while, Walmart employed illegals and locked them in the store late at night and made them work extra time which they were not paid for. The other thing they did, and this is what's interesting, is that they worked their cashiers without giving them sufficient breaks, so they wore diapers and used them since they didn't have time to get to a bathroom. These news articles ran both in my home news paper and on NPR, so I assume the story is true.

 

[Darkfinn]

It is more common than you would think... dispite labour laws... I imagine many cashiers and clerks still use diapers b/c of the lack of scheduling for toilet breaks. Noone seems to care about retail workers anymore.

I've never worked at a "superstore" and don't ever plan on it... but you'd better believe that if I did the first time management denied me my legally required break... I'd pee all over the floor and then see them in court.

I don't wear at work. I think if you're not incontinent, diapers, like other fetish type objects, need to stay at home. There is just no good reason to wear to work. While you can't be fired for it, presumably if your boss/senior management noticed you were only wearing them certain days they'd know it wasn't because you needed them (assuming you don't work in an area where you can't take bathroom breaks). And I would think that could affect, maybe unconsciously on your boss' part, whether you got a promotion, got laid off if there were budget cuts, etc. Maybe it's just where I work, but there are people who fit in (and suck up), and there are people who just don't, and the ones who don't fit in/suck up tend to be the ones who don't last long, or miss out on promotions over other less qualified people. So, I'm not going to do anything to get me noticed in a negative way.

Also, if I wore to work I'd probably be less social, as others said, and less likely to want to speak out at a meeting or do anything else to draw attention to myself.

So yeah, there is very little chance I'd ever wear to work.

 

[BabyMullet]

I wear to work sometimes, although not often because my main financial job is in sales, and appearance pays a lot in getting a good commission. However, when its slow, and we don't have to move around many things, I do take some solace in being padded as a skewed way to rebel against the management. If anyone took offense with it, I would also be spurred on to keep doing it just to spite them.

 

[Eclipse]

No I never have, and never will at my current job. Except i might at another future job, depending on the type of job it is.

I can't wear at work because we wear thin pants and we constantly bump into eachother so even if no one noticed, someone would eventually bump into my butt and feel it!

 

[r0bino]

I'd also say that it doesn't belong to the workplace. Being social when diapered would be very hard for me (although I might be very relaxed etc), and I don't want to be somebody who buggs others with his personal fetishes (even if they might not notice it).

I've done that (i.e. bugging non-friends) before kinda unintentionally, and it's just a very bad thing to do. Not everybody wants to know my secret, and I think a stranger should be able to expect from me that I respect his wish NOT to know it

 

[avery]

this is definitely not something i'd ever do. like a few others have said, wearing diapers makes me feel much less confident and sociable. mostly when i'm padded i just want to be by myself, playing music or watching a movie or whatever. i love my coworkers, and i love being cheerful and friendly when i'm around them. in a way i feel like i've only just recently figured out how fun it can be to be confident and outgoing, so the last thing i want to do is stifle that side of me.

sometimes i regret that i can't wear diapers more often. it wouldn't be too hard to make sure i always have plenty of long shirts that wouldn't ride up over the top of my pants. people would probably notice eventually but like darkfinn's coworkers they'd just assume i had a problem with incontinence, and probably wouldn't mention it. but then i think about the way i act around my friends and the way i'd act around them if i wore diapers all the time, and i realize it's out of the question. i'll rarely ever wear them in public, and never around my friends and coworkers.

I wear in public all the time, so I would not be uncomfortable about that part. I do think like an earlier poster mentioned, that I would then need to start wearing all of the time. Also there is the problem of disposal. I work for a smaller company and if adult diapers started showing up in the bathroom garbage, I am pretty sure there would be some rampant speculation about whose they were.

I work for a company that has 15 employees... I put my dirty diapers in the bathroom trash. Noone has said a word.

Who looks through the bathroom trash? That's just gross.

Well, it not like the trash cans are HUGE. I could see a point where the diaper would end up on top. We also self clean, so whoever empties the trash would notice the large increase in weight.

All the jobs i've had involved some sort of manual labor (lifting, cleaning, etc.) so diapers get uncomfortable very fast. I have worn to work once or twice but stopped because it got so sweaty underneath. I might wear if i was given a diaper that is somewhat breathable (the new attends, tenas, etc.) but that wont happen for a while.

If someone picks up a bag of trash...And it's heavy, they aren't going to think "Oh! Someone must be wearing diapers..."

Precisely.

I change maybe 5 diapers at work every week. They're not that heavy.

And it's not that hard to make sure to put some paper towels on top of your diapers so they aren't so blatantly obvious.
