No suit any more. I jacked that in ages ago
I probably don't look too professional at all. Especially not today when I have my cardi on and a massive tissue soaking up (mostly) all the snotty sneezes due to the cold I seem to have developed

I'll leave that to the dear, delightful and late Clement Freud to explain.Originally posted by d000hg View PostWhy are they soiled?
For those of you that aren't permitted to wear undies in the office or are surrounded by those that still think they have a right not to be offended, then headphones may be required.If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.Comment

WTF is Suit without a tie??Originally posted by More than a few;..... suit without a tie....
Shirley dressing goes something like:
1) Dead casual - Trainers, Jeans, Tee shirts (or even more scruff order)
2) Casual - Shoes of some kind, non-Jeans keks, Polo or possibly non-smart shirt
3a) Business Casual (Scruff) - Proper shoes, Chinos, button up shirt
3b) Business Casual (non-scruff) - Proper shoes, proper trousers, button up shirt (possibly even a real shirt)
4) Almost formal - PShoes, PTrews, real shirt & tie
5) Formal - Suit, Shirt and tie (possibly remove jacket when not in meetings)
6) Stuffy - As above but Jacket on even at desk
A suit without the tie is just a bit too "Irish Navvy"/Rab C NesbittJim is a Jedi! - Dara

Wodders, get a better suit mate. The daffy duck acrylic tie and worn in the seat trouser look isn't doing you justice fella.Comment
