LOL at people who wear "dress shoes" with rubber soles

I'm a 20-year-old intern and even I have more of a sense of style than that. If you don't want to drop big money on shoes, you can pick up a pair of Allen Edmonds for less than $400. But either way, unless you're a landscaper or professional athlete, please stop showing up to work in rubber soled shoes.

Well then, aren't you a sanctimonious little twerp?

You are 20, therefore you have tattoos. Unless you are a fulltime circus clown, please stop showing up to work with tattoos.

That's great! Thanks for posting! Keep us updated!!!!

Ha, not only do I routinely wear rubber soled shoes, I also often pair them with polyester/rayon trousers.

I do wear 100% cotton shirts, but most of them are non-iron.

Working for nothing also looks silly but I'm glad your mom will still buy you shoes.

This is exactly right. It's funny how this dimwitted 20-year-old can't see how odd it is to brag about buying expensive shoes when he's an intern and his parents are buying the shoes for him.

The coffee pot is getting low. Go take ownership of that problem, kid.

I wear bargain dress shoes from Sierra Trading Co., a $29 Timex Ironman watch, Carhartt denims, and catalog cotton dress shirts to work, and I am a partner in a $1B+ PE firm. I don't believe I have ever asked HR to screen for fashion sense on intern resumes.

I find my modest pay ($17/hr) to be more than sufficient to afford to dress like a grown up without help from my parents.

Well I guess it depends on your field of study. Some interns not only don't get paid at all, they have to pay thousands just to have the opportunity to work for nothing.

And I don't just mean serving the coffee. I mean busting your @ss for 60 hours or more per week.

Good thing they are paying your rent.

Like it, classic. Carhartt has a certain hipster fashion sense to it to.

Peter Jennings used to buy all his clothing from catalogs and was on the "best dressed" list every year...

You're only 20 so you don't even have it yet, but you ought to have your man card revoked for an additional six months for this post. Here's why:

01. You're too pre-occupied with other peoples, esp other's men's fashion. You know what we call people who go online and whine about how men dress? We call them "women".

02. You're 20. You can't even drink legally in the US. You have no business giving advice about anything, but esp about finances and fashion. You've got an internship and money. Good for you. Shut up and be happy.

I hope while you're walking to your car you walk through a large puddle with a downed but live power line lying in it. That will teach you to cry about rubber soled shoes.

PS- I wear a $13 Casio calculator watch

If you got time to lean, you got time to clean, boy. Now go take care of the mess I made in the middle stall.

nice job. 8.7/10

1/10

what took you so long? the replies have been reverse trolling the op since the start of this thread. the op still hasn't caught on.

Another swing and miss. I pay my board using student loans, which I will be repaying.

You seem to be projecting, here. Just because you're irresponsible doesn't mean that I am.
