Unsuitable

Unsuitable. Just unsuitable.

Sunday I wore a suit for Tony Heilman's memorial service. Monday through Wednesday I was at the "Reinventing Consumer Packaged Goods" conference sponsored by IRI, my employer. At the office, we are "business casual", but at the conference suits and ties were required. Tomorrow, Bar Mitzfah in the morning, reception for the young gentleman in the evening.

Five days in a suit this week! This is the most since the 1980's, when I wore one every day to work. What, I wonder now, was the point of that?

Unfortunately the suits are left over from that time since they get so little use. Frankly, they don't look that classy any more. Wearing the expensive but old suit is a minor protest, but at least it's a cheap protest.
