Dress for the job you want, not the one you have is my motto. I don't need to wear a suit, but when I'm on the elevator with the CEO I may get their attention before some cuck in the polo and loafers.

Return 2 shirts and one suit. You should always have a suit for interviews, and a second shirt/tie combo if you get called back in for a 2nd round.

Also, splurge on the suit and a nice shoes as that's what people see first. Yes, a nice silky shirt feels better and may last longer over some shit cotton, but more often than not a $50 shirt appears the same as a $100 shirt to the untrained eye. If you're wearing dress shirts daily you're better off getting 10 at $30 rather than 4 at $100.

Show up to the interview well dressed and with good manners. Watch the ease with which you get a job that you might only be barely qualified for.

So i should return the shirts you think?

Honestly of all things the shirts felt the most overpriced. $100 each is ridiculous.

Dude, how about thinking through your actions before you do something?

And that whole >dress nice thing means nice for your social circle/job/intended job. If everyone around you wears shitty graphic tees and old jeans, you wear a well fitting plain tee and good jeans or chinos; if everyone wears jeans and casual shirts, you wear slacks and dress shirts…

And $400 for a suit? Yeah, that's totally going to look great…

But - assuming you do so at all, and at a level above Mickey D's - you at least now have a suit to wear at a job interview.

funny enough I learned to be frugal from low paying jobs, a shirt like yours OP could cost half my paycheck. fuck that.

you start to think of stuff as time. time it'll take to make up for what you blew on stupid shit
>>
>>1951369
Ok, only boxers it is
>>
as long as the job isn't fucking mcdonlads and you dont turn up looking like the hentai gestapo, you will be alright. >>1952363 is right. you want to trojan horse that shit. make them think you are a normal person. that means clean, NORMAL haircut, shaved, plain shirt or tshirt, plain everything, give nothing away through your appearance, and absolutely no fucking visible tattoos or retarded piercing shit. shit is the biggest red flag
>>
Know these feels.

On the plus side, when you suddenly have an interview/wedding/funeral or whatever, it's good knowing that you have something ready without having to think about it.

And there's a big difference between a shit and a good shirt, which maybe you don't know because you haven't worn enough shit shirts.

Also don't fall for the "dress for the job you want" meme. That's a quick way to mark yourself out as somebody who's dangerously inexperienced.

Return 2 shirts and get a pair of casual shoes (Sperrys, brogues, CDB, whatever) and a pair of dark slim jeans. You can wear em with a shirt on a daily basis and it'll be socially acceptable, and maybe even respectable.

You should have some nice clothes. Really the shirts are overpriced but a quality casual dress shirt is more practical than a suite. You can always just return stuff and buy cheaper shirts. I have one suit and rarely use it. In 99%of my life it would be overkill.
