“Be yourself and do your best”, I think the above comment has been one of the foundations of any motivational speaker and every “feel good” movie starring Adam Sandler; unfortunately I begin to discover that this is not real, and that lies and deceit are the keys to success. What completes these hideous qualities is the right wardrobe, and what attracts better to fool than the “monkey suit”.
According to urban slang, a jumpsuit is “a uniform that one wears to work every day.” Well, when you think about it, you live in a concrete jungle with tall buildings and you are climbing these buildings and swinging from office to office to get those bananas to make ends meet… Hence: Monkey Suit. Now that we’ve gotten past the cartoon images in my head, let’s see what started this topic. No one can deny that suits look good, and they can turn heads in meetings and sometimes close some deals, but the glorified status that suits have taken compared to the actual job of the employee is very strange.
Today’s society perceives a person by their appearance, their attitude, their sense of humor and for being early as a sign of discipline (Trained Monkey) and far down the list is your current job; Well, not that far, but it’s nowhere near the top. If anyone is familiar with the show “Suits”, there is a character who is a drug dealer but wears a $2000 suit and no one would suspect that he is a drug dealer. It’s amazing what this monkey suit can do to people. Now comes the tough question: do you budget the bananas you get at the end of the month to buy new outfits and still have some left over to make yourself a nice banana smoothie at the end of the day to enjoy? A real eyebrow raiser. Can I buy a jumpsuit and leave the suit? It would be cheaper and a lot more fun.
Finally, we need to review our priorities in life and begin to digest that the man or the woman makes the suit and not the other way around. And what better way to end this than with a quote from William Arnot, a 19th-century Scottish preacher and theological writer: “If honor be your clothes, the suit will last a lifetime; but if clothes be your honour, soon it will be.” used”. frayed.”
