Do you wear pajamas to the store?

It's what's on the inside that counts. 

For me that's mostly fat.

How you present yourself in public speaks to the level of respect you have for yourself and others.

I was taught to make yourself presentable.

I agree with this to an extent. A working person in a job that doesn't provide uniforms that goes to the store in their dirty work clothes (T-shirt/jeans/etc) should not feel like they are less than someone wearing fine clothes. An honest days work should be respected.

An ex-girlfriend once dragged me to a wedding in the middle of farmtown MN. One of the hottest days of the year and she forced me to wear a full suit and tie. Walk into the church and everyone looks like they just came from either the bar or the field. Most in shorts and Ts. Even the wedding party was wearing jeans. Needless to say I was the most overdressed and out of place person there. Want to feel like an ass under a microscope? Do that.

But I will say, they were some of the funnest and likeable people you ever met once the party started.

I was a jeans and T-shirt guy 99% of the time.
In the last few years I've been wearing clean collared shirts more often.
There is unmistakably a little more respect that comes with it.

I feel I best explain the saying so I don't upset Neu....years ago just after my apprenticeship and before gong into the DO, I was the model shop/R&D guy.
So day to day working with my hands and mostly handle winding.
<12 months later Company moved buildings so the dept closed and I moved into the DO and 1st day of new job arrived in shirt and tie and black trousers.
Shoes too!
Mentor looked me up and down with a smile, and announced to the Engineering Dept, "well, it proves if you put a pig in a suite, you still have a pig"....

It's easy.

Casual = Ron Jon surf shirt. Cargo shorts , Flip Flops.

Dressed = Clean Ron Jon surf shirt , Clean Cargo shorts and Flip Flops.

Formal = Beach print Button up shirt , Stressed Jeans , Slip ons.

The First two can also be Modified to "Bad Company" concert shirts.

I usually wear jeans and a polo shirt to work so that's what I wear most everywhere. In warm weather it's shorts and a t shirt if I'm not working.

I used to go to the liquor store wearing whatever I happened to be wearing. A few times it was pajama pants, a t shirt and flip flops. I'm sure I set a few hearts a flutter.

They are prolly still trying to figure out the Jump in 8 a.m. sales.

what did he say when you fired him a few years later???

[Incogneeto]

I will say there are a few times I have had the great idea of going out by myself to breakfast at Dennys.

Got home and realized my pants zipper was undone and my shirt was inside out.

"Supplies"!!!!

made a pistol with a hacksaw and a file. And drilled the barrel with a drill, but made a bow to spin it.

A ghost gun?! He's obviously a terrorist!
