There is a near 100 percent chance that every person you have ever met was forced to wear at least one thing in their lifetime that they didn’t want to wear. In many cases, it was probably something that a parent forced a child to wear, but also a fair number of people have to wear particular items to school or work that they would never be caught in otherwise. Much less likely that someone would bother to cut up an employer issued item of clothing that they felt strongly about.
