At drinks with colleagues a few days back, the topic came up of my lack of ‘work style’. Of course I wear a suit, so I’m smartly presented, but that always becomes shirt and pants as I’m not comfortable in a jacket.
Add that to the fact that I don’t wear a tie (nobody does here) and I often wear white shirts (I’ve got 8 of them), and my ‘work style’ is very bland.
No cardigan, waistcoat, jacket or vest, jumper or cummerbund or what have you.
So, I borrowed a colleague’s bow tie and gave it a go. What say you?
Waiter? Does anyone say waiter?
Maybe it is not for me. Upon donning it I instantly felt much sillier. You can only wear a bow tie in jest, right?
