Getting it off my chest...

There are lots of things are my chest this early Tuesday morning, but I don't have time to air it all out now. There is one thing that I must say....please please please dress appropriately.
Dear Resident,
I know that you have lots of education, and big plans for the future however that does not mean that you can dress like a hot dog. Wearing small clothes might be acceptable outside of the OR, but wearing clothes that are too small for you is definitely not appropriate. I don't really know how you breathed in those clothes, maybe that is why you wanted your sterile gown to be tied up loosely. I am not judging what kind of physician you are or you will be, but if you were my resident and came in dressed like that I would kindly ask you to leave. Which brings me to my next point, please do not come into my delivery room. I know that I have to have residents there when I deliver since it is a teaching hospital, I just chose not to have you. Your personality was less than desirable, which actually matched they way you were dressed. I really don't know how you didn't pass out, between the tightness of your pants and the heat of the room. But, today is a new day, and I am writing this to put it behind me. Here's hoping for a better day, and looser pants.

Sincerely,
Concerned OR staff

is this something you can say to your supervisor? because if you're uncomfortable, then patients might be too. NOT COOL.
