Where are all the Albertan's in this thread?
I think some people took it a bit far here. I don't think anyone is trying to look like a homeless bum or like they haven't showered for days. Its just looking normal and wearing normal people clothes, thats all.

Also, dress image doesn't matter a lot from what I can tell. At Google and Facebook, its short, t-shirt and sandles and they are the company to work for right now. Most "young" or "trend" companies are about comfort and production, while older companies with an older corporate culture are about suites and shoes and looking good. I don't listen to my dad for this because quite frankly, he worked in an old generation company. I work in a new or young generation company.


Like 4x4 - I just don't trust people who are over-dressed. I just get the impression they are trying to compensate for being under-qualified or illegitimate.
