Question: weekend all day career-planning, bar function with lots of judges present = I must wear a suit? Or, can I get away with something a wee bit more casual? I suspect I know the answer (suit), but please tell me I am wrong so I can be more comfortable . . . . :)
Split the difference and find a comfortable suit? They do exist, it just takes a little hunting.
