When you’ve purchased easily $3k worth of business formal attire in the past year and a half that is now all but obsolete. :2fingers: ---

Outdressing is one thing, but suit vs. non-suit isnt really interchangeable. Wearing a nice suit when a cheap suit will do = pimp. Wearing a nice suit when casual will do = hangs out at Nektar ---

I hate dressing up for work, plus it almost always gets wrecked anyways… as such business casual is fine with me; unless I’ve got a big customer meeting. Hell, I’d rather be in Jeans/T anyday… ---

Ah thats one benefit of a lame call center, I could show up tomorrow in a cut off, shorts and flip flops and nobody would care. Other than wondering who’s the retard in mid winter but still. ---

lol. Dont get me wrong, I’d prefer to be wearing business casual clothes, in the summer especially. However I’d rather not have a closet of clothes that I might now wear once a month, that could have been a baller tv and a nice vacation. ---
