Do you wear a tie to work?

I wear a tie on most days, and always a necktie. The only time I usually might not is on Friday when the atmosphere is a little bit looser. This has been for over ten years now and I thought about shaking things up. So I might buy a handful of bow ties to wear maybe a few days a month. I've always thought they had an "intellectual" look about them. I see a few people on tv wearing them. Tucker Carlson sometimes does and they look nice on him.

Susan has a soccer game after school today. After that I'm taking the family to dinner and then the mall. The wife has a few items on her list and the kids always like the mall. I'll scout around some myself and pick out a few bow ties. That's my plan now. What do you think about it? It's not a midlife crisis thing. LOL

Do you wear a tie to work? Does anyone ever wear a bow tie or is it always a necktie? Or do you dress casually? Maybe some of you work from home these days.

I have a miserable life and wish I were dead!

I hope mvscal serves vogel testicle ceviche at his next soirée. I'll wear a tie to that, and use it as a napkin.

Ties are no requirement for me Dan, although I do wear them sometimes.

Mostly, I like to wear them when you're out of town as Mrs. Vogel likes to pretend I'm some big shot CEO, stopping by on my lunch break to destroy her vagina. I tickle her anus with the end of the tie before I plow in head first like Jaws attacking the ORCA. She also likes to get wild and freaky with some hot-ass paisley neck tie bondage.

No tie. I wear a pearl necklace everyday and once in a while I'll mix in a pearl broach.

Is it me, or is goobs always the common denominator of these little bitch fights that spam the forums.

You know who I blame for this? The tards who let Goobs get under their skin.

You have to understand - sfaf is one of the most thin-skinned pussies on the entire internet. He had a fairly amusing thing going for a while with his automatic "who gives a fuck" responses, but one day someone lobbed a little smack at him, and he's been shedding his lining ever since.

Thanks for proving my point, dumbass. Got any 5 year old jokes you want to share with us?

Looks like Paul has his work cut out for him if he wants to remain the board bitch of this place.

Here's a collection Dan should look at. I'm sure he's a big Deadhead.

Please don't. Should you lean over a piece of machinery, it is practically impossible for a bowtie to get caught in it resulting in your strangulation and impending death.

Not only do I not wear a tie to work, I usually wear shorts and t-shirts in the summer. Around my office, Dockers are considered formal wear.

Retired teacher speaks up (wondering if there is a set uniform in Lab Rat's world) began my career with shirt-tie-jacket. Eventually the jacket went, then the tie. At least I always wore dress slacks and a dress shirt.
Nice to know that the fast food biz in the Rochester NY area allows shorts and T-shirts for their help.

It all depends upon the client. I follow their style. I start off wearing a tie and suit jacket on the first day and most often just wear a shirt and tie after that (no jacket).

My last client was on the West Coast and they tend to be much more casual than the East Coast. So, I just wore a dress shirt (yes, also pants and shoes).

I have over 200 ties to fit any occasion but I have no bow ties. They look dweeby and gax to me. Very few can pull of wearing a bow tien and look suave.
If you are in good shape and look like strong, that helps. If you are frail or skinny.. do not attempt to wear the bow tie. Also, I think you have to wear a sharp suit and vest to complete the look. A bow tie without a jacket doesn't cut it unless you are doing Chippendales.

Put it on and ask a few ladies that you trust how it looks...If they say no... Put the thing away. If they smile, you might just be a "Bow Tie Man"

Jack,

You weren't supposed to answer the question seriously. In any event, I think a cement body cast would suit you best.

Nope. I go with boots, jeans, and a pearl snap shirt.

What is the purpose of a tie? What does it do?

1. they are napkins
2. they are for fashion-oriented girls to gawk at, and determine whether or not they will sleep with you in 5 seconds or less.

Nice of you to give Cowboy mvscal something to hang on to, buckaroo.

See guys, this is what we need. More of that all-American, wide-open spirit shown by Dan.

Thanks for the advice. I picked out 4 bow ties that I liked at the mall but don't know if I'll be brave enough to really wear one of them to work. Even on a Friday. I like your idea of spicing things up by wearing some different and creative ties instead. The Beatles ties are pretty cool I admit. I might do some more brainstorming and look around on the internet to find some other creative neckties to maybe buy. I'll put the bow tie idea on hold for now.

Thanks Jsc810 I apprecite it.

:brad: Dan, I'd like to wear your aorta as a necktie, you god-thumped nincompoop. I'd like to scalp your armpits and sew them onto your head as makeshift eyebrows. Then I'd jam my finger up to the third knuckle into your schnoss and do the hand lambada with your eyeball connector thingies.

Nothing says "Punch me in the face" like a bow tie. Skinny ties and knit ties rank right up there.

I'm stuck wearing ties again after a 15-year hiatus. I think I look pretty damn spiffy and I get smiles from the girl, although my old man neighbor likes to yell out his door, "So you think your a big shot now?"

Dan, it's this simple. If you are looking at bow ties, it means that you don't want your tie to compete with your cleavage. If you don't have a cleavage disruptor issue, then just choose a colorful and however inventive long tie you want. If you keep this up, I'm going to have to invite you go to shoe shopping with me.
