My Tai (neck)ties

See anything nice?
Yes, I wear those ties to work everyday. It took me years to collect them.

However, wearing such ties is not without its share of problems. I have been used by trainers as an example of ‘how NOT to dress’ because it 'makes a person look like childish and unprofessional'.

15 years ago, maybe.

At a time when everyone wants something done yesterday and where having a BSc (Hons) is not that uncommon, you need to stand out and be different. We are at a time where everything seems ‘usual’. Mobile phones? Everyone's got one these days. Nothing unusual. Traffic jam? Not unusual. Potholes on almost every road? Nothing new.

So, it a world where a person's attention span is like a mere 5 seconds, you need to be special. Sometimes you also need to be 'loud'. Only then can you get another extra 5 seconds. :)

Which one would you give a second look or like to stare at for another 5 seconds? Mr. A or Mr. B?

In any case, the ties do make wonderful conversation starters.
