Glad this thread got bumped because I was thinking about yesterday.
I’m ordering company polos for about 50 folks in my organization going to conferences this fall. Naturally, I have someone reach out to all of them for sizes. One woman didn’t respond and I didn’t want her to get shafted so I hit her up directly. She responded that she already has a bunch of company shirts.
Nothing else. No size. Turned down a high quality polo.
I go to her Workday profile to see her profile and her picture - she was definitely embarrassed to tell me her size
I didn’t even ask my HR business partner, I just let the situation rock but that is so damn ridiculous. People go crazy over free anything at work and she turned something down to avoid fat shaming
