wear my best 3-piece from day 2

Ah yes, but, your best suit is from Hugo Boss, so, surely doesn't count

You really expect the permies to be able to afford one of 'em ?

They are probably impressed they make such large sizes...

FTFY

They are probably depressed they have to subsidise, the cost, for those who wear such large sizes.....

Anyone wearing "Docs with green laces" is worthy of scorn and ridicule - in any circumstance or situation.

You can dress like a McDonalds employee if you like, I promise not to think less of you.

In an attempt to be on-topic, RBS is the only finance place I've ever worked at that required a tie. Consequently I made it a habit to let my kid pick out a new one at the gift shop every time we went to Edinburgh zoo for a year and these ties are my entire supply. They've sat in a drawer for nearly a decade.

Now that's far too harsh, IMO.
He has posted plenty of useful stuff over the years, you don't have to like him, but that's a matter of opinion.

Alongside Saville Row SNG (and HKG for that matter) is one of the best places in the world to get a suit fitted. Prices can be 1/6 the price of SR for 200s cashmere. Stock up with suits and wear them every day so you can get them adjusted. Tie as appropriate.

Whatever the dress code there is nothing wrong with looking immaculate.

(Also get one of the $100 2 suits 5 shirt deals. Go for comedy colours (think Dumb and Dumber) and use them for nights on the town. I once got a snazzy Zebra suit. Do NOT wear these ones to the office.)

If I could dance like Fred Astaire I'd wear a tophat and tails daily and treat the staff to a soft shoe routine every morning!
