    Business Casual - What's your take?

    You know you've failed when you're disagreeing with yourself. I would suggest you stop before you start looking....wait nm too late. Nope - because quality and brand name are not always equal. I know this may crush your ego, but brand names can often be of bad quality and you are simply...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    My choice in clothing purchases has been an evolution. A couple years ago, I thought a nice polo and khakis was better than what 50% of the people wear. It takes time for a person to be comfortable to pay $500+ for shoes, or $150+ for wool trousers, or to pay 4X for a blazer than what is on sale...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    I already told you, they are pretentious douchebags no matter where they go or what they like. Are you that naive to think that pretentious douchebags is a rare species and only local to this forum? And that's fine, but a huge demographic of douchebags belong to Style Forum.

    Wow, your parents must be so proud of you.

    OK, I will take your advice and not feed you.

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    On the contrary. It's pretentious if they're just debating about the brand. Debating the quality is intelligent and rather important for the rest of us. Some of us don't have the money or time to wear expensive things till they wear out on us, it's better to learn how to spend money on things...

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection How very brave of you to admit your problems.

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    There are lot of pretentious douchebags here simply because they are pretentious douchebags in real life. Nothing to do with their interest in clothing. Someone with bad attitude is going to carry that no matter what their hobby is. Come on, when people are debating the quality of a brand name...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    I do not know what profession or occupation you are in, but you obviously have not witnessed the trend of certain major companies actually nixing the business casual dress code and re-installing 'business formal' in recent years after the implosion of the tech bubble, i.e. in banks, lawfirms...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    In my world, convincing someone to supersize an order doesn't count a closing a deal. You are just hilarious. What do you do for a living?

    Business Casual is Hard

    Don't confuse my lack of any further response to mean that I agree with you. I'll just add this thought. Stop confusing your opinion for fact. Good thing I have facts to back me up. Let me know if you want them.

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    I don't know where you get this pretentious douchebag idea from. There's this thing called "hobby" and for some, clothing is a hobby. Some may like cars, wine or electronics. This group of fellas like clothing. Some people think taking a shower and brushing their teeth is a waste of time too...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    Come on guys, without River Dog we won't have people who believe getting an education in DeVry is no different from Harvard. We need folks like him to fill the gaps. I never said I don't wear suits. I am just saying that I don't need to wear suits to do business in this day and age and that is...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    Dear River Dog, Never stop posting. Sincerely, Harvey. Keep wearing your suits. It's the ONLY thing you have going for you to close a deal.

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    How about dressing up to show respect for clients and colleagues? There are many fields in which wearing suits makes a favorable impression. I don't know anyone impressed with that **** anymore. Usually they are more impressed to find out that I am not just some company man with smoke and...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    I admit I'm not very good at my job, but that has nothing to do with my clothing. I don't know what you do for a living, but if you're a non-manual skilled worker in a "professional" vocation, I would not do business with you if you are dressed in jeans and a T-shirt. In fact, I stopped going...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    Yes. No. It is irrelevant what my "company" wants me to wear. I have potential clients and a jury to impress. Give me a ******* break - those days are long over my friend. People are not impressed anymore by people who wear fancy suits, which is why wearing one in the workplace is a dying...

    Business Casual - What's your take?

    Yes, that sort of work does requite a certain attention to detail. You're right out there on the left end of the curve. I don't see your answer anywhere here amongst your bullshit.

    Business Casual is Hard

    Let me think about what you wrote. The military does not compare to a job. I'm not a Dr. nor do I play one on TV, but I'm going to say that you are suffering from a cranial rectal inversion. The military is a job! Perhaps you hate it, but most do not share your opinion. Most jobs in the...

    Business Casual is Hard

    This is so obviously true that I don't know why you bothered to post it. For one huge example, look at all those screw-up slackers in the military. I mean, they do look sharp in those uniforms and they are really good at following rules, but everyone knows how lazy they are and what lousy...
