How the mighty have fallen...

Went to visit one of my business partners today for a planning discussion. Until now, we had always met at customer's offices. He said to me:

"Jeremy, I don't think I've ever seen you in anything but a suit."

What has become of me?

I've come around to the idea that, yes, impressions do matter and when you meet a customer, going with a suit and tie can't really hurt the cause that much. It didn't hurt that I picked up a bunch of suits for free of course.

I remember when I lived in Frankfurt, I told someone that I never wanted to wear a tie to work. A friend there told me, "you'll come around" and while I don't wear one everyday, I suppose I'm a conformist now, aren't I?
