Also, love the hilarious original thoughts calling the op gay for calling out slobs in the office.


Yeah so the OP was about wearing khakis, dress shoes, shirts, and ties in varying colors. You should reread it.

Had a guy in my office show up one day with a black vest over some kind of pink/purple shirt and a shiny silver tie. Engineer. Generally they're pretty bad.

For those that don't think a professional appearance matters - good luck, you'll need it - especially when you're coming out of college and there's nothing to you but a GPA.

Khaki slacks with black shoes? Are you 12?



Pretty awful.

I don't personally like them, but I have big feet. I imagine it would look better on someone who has smaller than average size feet.

Black shirt and bright colored tie? Mother of god.



I agree. Awful.

I do dress casually in the office a lot, though. Of course, I am my own boss, and I certainly dress differently when I know I'm going to be seeing clients.

Those technically aren't square-toed, I think.

I'd rather be perceived as really awesome at my job than a really BA dresser.
