And? One thing I like about Silicon Valley culture is nobody cares how you dress, just how you work and think.

- mcculley 4y agoThis is hilariously wrong, but people like to believe it.
- seizethecheese 4y agoIn an absolute sense it’s wrong, but compared to almost every other industry on the planet it’s right.
- mcculley 4y agoReally? I’m in the software industry and the tugboat industry. Do you mean “compared to almost every other desk job industry”?
- rowanajmarshall 4y agoSay that again after interviewing for a developer job wearing a suit and tie.
- seizethecheese 4y agoYeah, and you can’t interview naked. What I say is true relative to almost any other industry
- rowanajmarshall 4y agoA suit and tie wouldn't be blinked at in almost any other office job interview, especially if it's not on the West Coast. Tech has it's uniform like any other industry, and people care _deeply_ about sticking to it. It just happens to be casual wear we've adopted.
