Overhead lighting directly into the eyes kind of sucks. Cubicles, so cannot do much about it otherwise. I'm thinking about wearing a brimmed hat to block it. I don't work with clients, but still it's a not-too-casual office.



Is it acceptable to wear a hat such as this one in an office?



If not, are there other solutions that block the overhead light and are acceptable?

    @solarflare "Do you think people might find it a little eccentric" Some probably would. "And is this a reputation you want?" While I'd like to avoid it if I can - open to suggestions! - I want my eyes (and body in general) to be fine way more than I dislike such a reputation.

    Unfortunately I'm not sure this is answerable, as it'll vary between company and culture. Where I work, you might get the nickname of "hat guy", but little else. In some other places, you may be hauled into the manager's office and told to stop making a fool of yourself. It's really impossible to say.

    Only your manager/employee handbook/HR knows if it is acceptable or not... thus, this question is company-specific.
