xanderwu 400 titan <| sep |> Make it turreted , and you ' re on . <| sep |> Leviathan Chronicles . Story of this clandestine international agency responsible for government conspiracies . I haven ' t finished it yet , but I really like it . <| sep |> I don ' t really disagree with you , I ' m just trying to highlight two things 1 A hoodie in the office would only be distracting because it ' s outside of the norm . 2 I don ' t have a problem with using clothes to signal we have a professional relationship and I want to fit in with office culture . I do have a problem with the fact that the things that signal that tend to be very expensive , and will often look wrong unless you know exactly how to style it or can afford to buy it from somewhere that will tell you how to style it pants hem , sleeve length , getting the suit right color , shirt color , tie color , etc . I think it ' s a major class barrier that hurts people from disadvantaged backgrounds regardless of how smart or capable they are for the job in question . 3 Again , while I think that it ' s perfectly reasonable to dress in a way that you think will maximize people taking my ideas seriously , I think it is unfortunate that it ' s a thing we have to worry so much about . I also think this is a very gendered phenomenon not saying it doesn ' t effect men , just that I think women get judged more harshly in that regard . Like , I don ' t deny that my perception of people ' s ideas is influenced by their dress , but it ' s something that I think that is a bad thing and I try to minimize it as much as possible . edit formatting
