This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

There are still many companies in many industries that remain business formal all the way to the tippy top. I'm sure this is changing in some sectors, even highly visible ones (like tech and finance) that may lead business fashion in that direction over time. But it isn't universal.
I haven't seen anyone in business wear a tie in decade or so. Covid really accelerated that trend too.
