I like changing to go to the gym at work, right as investors are walking out the door and I’m in my cutoffs and shorts, they look at me funny.

replace the dress shirt with a nice thin sweater or a cashmere long sleeved polo …and remove the jacket when around in the office.

Stretch pants are highly versatile.

No you can, a suit pant is a completely different cut than a business casual cut pant. Also fading on your pants to do more frequent landering is going to kill a decent looking suit. Suit pants should only be worn when in conjunction with the suit.

I love wearing jeans and hoodies at work 😃 When I have meetings I dress up, but nothing more then dress pants and a nice button up. Ahh, the good life.

I don’t mind dressing in suits every day.

In fact, I wish more places would. I am of the opinion that we should go back to a more formal standard for dressing like we had 50 years ago. Maybe not quite to that extent, but if I see another person running around in the mall or anywhere in public in fucking PJs or sweat pants, I might have to choke a bitch.

Forget that. I feel that it just further promotes the stereotype that people that dress up are better then those that dont. For that very reason, I have never worn a tie to a job interview. And… well, i’ve had some good jobs.

fuck that if they are $500 suits, then who cares if you fade the pants. Odds are if it is a modern suit (1 or 2 button) then It will most likely be out of style before the pants fade

This is hilarious.

1. What higher being is mandating such practices?
2. Who, other than a gay sociology/political science major (and possibly their ugly girl friends) will notice?
3. Why would any person with half of a brain care about said people in #2?
