I am on a roll and this is just my first few hours back at it sense my Experience Project days.

So gentlemen when was the last time, if ever, you had a complete make over?
I am talking head to toe change.

For me it was kind of unintentional. I had a funeral to go to and had nothing nice to wear. So I decided that rather than just buy a button up shirt and black tie I would go all out.
I'm not one for dressing up because I feel like a complete fish out of water. My normal idea of it is like what I said. A clean pair of jeans and a button up shirt and black tie and some times even a sweater.
So first was the shirt and tie. Easy to find and pretty much will go with anything else I would be getting.
Then I got some nice slacks. Black as well.
I put a nice shine on the boots and I was complete.
I normally feel at ease in my bike leather, jeans, t-shirt and my engineer boots.
But today I was dressed to the nines.
After the funeral I had to go get a prescription filled. When we gave them the script they said it would be about 15 minutes. So we sat down. A few minutes later the pharmacist came out from behind the counter and walked right to me and knelt down. He said that there would be a little longer wait on that medication and he was very sorry.
Now see if I had been dressed normal I would have just sat there with no clue. But sense I was dressed like I was somebody I was getting the good treatment. I mean he didn't have to ask who was waiting on the script I was there for. Someone had told him who he was looking for.
So if you ever wondered if the cloths make the man you may want to give it some serious thought.

@BoobooSnafu Now that is a visual. decapitating the Easter bunny right in front of those innocent eyes. Yeah they would be scared for life for sure.😂
@Machete serious PTSD right there!!

Traumatised for life 🤣
Oh....I've played with this concept SO MUCH!!

I have a malleable personality - I can change everyday - and adapt myself to those around if need be.

People form tribes, and tribes have uniforms - just like you spoke of.

And I read somewhere once - people get something like 70% of thwir information from their eyes, and we've all heard of first impressions....

We're a terribly gullible society - few see deeper than the surface. And even less have the strength to treat ALL with equality.

Imagine your treatment had you been dressed in dirty smelly clothes and no shoes!

Humanity huh?!🤷‍♀️
@Machete oh crap!

That's the shit I do! 🤣

I once walked into a gaming and comic book store, had a handful of (only for descriptive purposes do I classify them as 'geeky young men') D&D players in it.
( im a sucker for great illustration)
I was in my leather bike gear... It was like the devil walking into church 🤣... I swear I heard a guys chin hit the table - all conversation stopped 😁... It was so hard to keep a straight face 😂

@BoobooSnafu Oh I would have loved to see that. Can you imagine what was going through their minds? It was either " Danger, Danger. Biker chick on the premises ". or maybe closer to " We are going to get beat up for sure now ". 😂 Or more likely yet " It's a real woman dressed in leather. Mom won't believe this ". 😂
@Machete qmmmf!😏😜

Exactly! 😁... I was too scared to smile at them just in case any passed out! 😁

@Machete what😱
How one dresses and carries themselves always influences how people feel about someone. Just like pretty vs ugly.

@NoGamesTolerated The cloths make the man. As simple as it may sound dress for success.
You are right also on how one carries them selves. Confidence can be a double edged sword but over all it is mostly a positive trait.
Thanks for reading and commenting.
