I need to quickly update my treatise on tie brand hierarchy (or, as identified by the Google search engine, “tierarchy” a word I invented/created/coined). In the original piece, I focused mainly on the brands that were acceptable as everyday Wall Street attire. Yesterday, I spotted some ties that are at the bottom of the tierarchy totem pole.
Helpful hint: don't buy your ties at the same place where you can also pick up a Swiffer, hemorrhoid medication and some condoms.
If you are tie shopping at Rite Aid, you are doing it wrong – even if you are a Summer Analyst. Although, bonus points for the kid willing to buy one of these, wear it to the office, and successfully fish for compliments. ”Thanks, I got it at Rite Aid, they have a pretty killer accessory selection. I got this belt there, too.”
I am not done with the Summer Associate stuff, but exhausted from that friggin AC recap,
