If a person wake up early everyday but have a little time before he go to work. And I understood from a website that praying Modeh Ani after eating is disrespectful toward the Almighty.
Can I recite it before dressing up for work ?

Yes you can. The custom among many Jews, is to say it right when you wake up.
Quote from Siddur harav (loosely translated): It's good to get into the habit of saying modeh ani right when to wake up and through this you'll remember G-d who stands over you and you'll get up quickly.
So if you wake up before getting dressed, then yes, you can say it before getting dressed :)

Maybe the Siddur harav was only referring to people who don't sleep nude?– Double AA ♦Commented Aug 19, 2015 at 5:21

@DoubleAA Could be, but it's not a berachah or anything like that, or else you'd first need to wash negel vasser. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this what most Jews do?– user613Commented Aug 19, 2015 at 12:12
