Is This Condescending: Breh Praised for Dressing for a Job Interview

[KidJSoul]

Why do people get mad at black men wearing suits do much

 

[klutch2381]

The world has low expectations for us

Even other black people do

Truth.

It’s sad too.

a woman going to the airport in a bonnet doesn't offend me (if they were doing it at a job interview i would clown them)

a man going to an interview in dress clothes doesn't offend me

i thought the people clowning the unc dressing his age was corny as hell

you gotta find the contradictors and call them out.

i get what you're saying but coli isn't a monolith neither.

The standards for business casual have drastically lowered over time.

I was told after my interview that I was getting my current job because I’m potentially cool under pressure and I was the only one who wore a suit and tie. Everybody else, man and woman, wore jeans and t-shirt/polo. I had no prior experience and hadn’t much of an idea of what the job even was, I just looked and carried myself like I meant business.

I don't think he's being praised.....looks the opposite.

No wonder so many black boys got such low self esteem and confidence...... He's being picked on and clowned for simply taking a little pride in his appearance.

Da culture can be so backwards, mean & cruel

I needed this

I'm getting into job searching and that's some confidence I can use

I didn't create this thread to explain anything. I created this thread to ask a question.

And I said that in my previously response which means this is the second receipt of you being a dense fake muthafukka since we are keeping count

your question had nothing to do with the content you reposted in OP....

that's literally my whole damn point....

if i could neg you again i would

I had to post this just to see if I'm missing something here. Nikka got on slacks and collar shirt to do a job interview what exa

nope most people dress like shyt nowadays for interviews.

 

[Ghost Utmost]

Mike Judge is a prophet.

Except it didn't take hundreds of years. Just a few decades.

Idiocracy

Of course you dress up for any interview. Even Wendy's.

@Red11

what you mad about? I never said there's something wrong with something else, but clowning people for being overdressed? you really think that's a positive thing?

accident bro sorry.

 

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

And that's where I am lost cuz when haven't we had to put on at least business casual for any job interview?

New generation (and some of ours) don't always do this. The norm for interview decorum has changed a lot over the last 5-10 years but especially post pandemic.
