You have been proven to be a broke fraud that won’t post a paystub time and time again. For anyone to take you seriously you’re going to have to show some proof of income in 2018. If you’re over 50k I would be shocked. Keep posting threads asking if Misc thinks you’ve got a shot at an 80k/yr job and then pretending to be a baller. It’s very entertaining.

Even that varies. I worked at a very large Broker-Dealer for a while and there was a lot of extremely casual dressing going on - including the supervisors, VPs, etc

If I post a paystub, this year, for around $100k , despite taking 3 months off, you get banned?

I work in finance. I own three suits and am looking to get three more. Would ideally wear a suit to the office every day. Tailored suits are awesome. They're super comfy and make you look good as phuck.

However I don't wear a tie unless I have client meetings - keep one at my desk just for that reason. I also take my suit coat off when I get to work so I'm basically business caj but prepped to go bizform if need be.

Pretty much everyone in my office doesn't wear suits unless they have a client meeting. 3/4 of the MD's come to work in jeans and button downs almost every day unless they have meetings.

Work suits are just for people that have to wear them for client meetings and for lawyers. Most other people that wear suits wear poorly fitting garbage from the Jos.A.Bank sale rack and they look worse than if they just did bizcaj. You can tell people who are poverty and who are balling by simply glancing at the suit they're wearing.

The suit wearers would like to project the image of success, but we know they are spinning on hamster wheel harder than anyone.
Medical device reps (when not in scrubs)? Sometimes I wear a suit. I don't like to look like a slob when I'm calling on surgeons. Pharmaceutical reps? Pharma reps have to wear a suit. But when you're making over $100k with a degree in liberal arts and driving a free company car who cares.

Those are just two quick examples of > 100K/ year and you can do it with a bachelors in psychology or whatever degree you want. How do you like them apples boyo?

Finance seems boring af..brb watching surgeries a few times a week in my goofy scrub uniform. Beats staring at numbers all day.

Can confirm. My dad is in sales making ~500K and wears whatever he wants, generally jeans and polo t-shirts. The people working under him are tryhards wearing suits and leasing Mercedes coupes, making like 70K

What jobs around 30-75k do people actually wear suits for? Someone that works at a funeral home?

Unless the guy looks like a weathered dog poop eating homeless man(the white ones are his favourite) you shouldn’t really judge on appearance alone anywas, but rather by the quality of their work.

The type of suit makes a huge difference. Yeah, your average salesperson might wear a baggy suit off the rack at Macy’s, and may even have some minor tailoring done. It will typically look cheap/middle class. A bespoke Savile Row suit will look completely different, and is aimed towards a completely different market.

Can confirm, knew a pharma sales regional manager. Political science degree, free company car, company expenses/gas card, and made over 200k with all commission added up. Though tbh a pharma/med device rep is on a whole different level than a guy in a suit selling cologne at the mall.

Who here can buy a suit off the rack nowdays anyway? With all the queer slimfit crap I have to buy pants like 3 sizes too big so seams don't explode the first time squat down in them. If you can buy pants off the rack you obviously don't train legs.

meh I work in a hospital. I could wear business casual (khakis and a polo shirt) but I wear scrubs instead. they're comfy and if they get soiled/stained for whatever reason I can just throw them away.
