    If you’re staying in downtown, it’s kind of a waste. Parking sucks, and mass transit is pretty good if you need to travel from one end of the city to the other.

    The waterfront Marriott is nice if you get a good rate. It’s right across from Anthony’s I think.

    Be situationally aware at night if you’re going up the stairs adjacent to it going up to the market. There are sometimes some sketchy characters there.

    The fucking town is built vertically going west to east so wear comfy shoes!

    I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

      For my trip to Seattle a couple of years ago, we skipped renting a car.  Did not miss it at all, and the kids managed the walking reasonably well.

        @Chris you regularly wash and machine dry your IH denim correct? If so do your Jeans not have creases and combs? Or do they but it’s less defined? Also do you get any shrink from
        The regular drying? Thanks

        Maybe so. Maybe not

          I will third the opinion that a rental car is not necessary if you're staying in downtown Seattle.

                Charcoal suit, black belt and shoes, white shirt, no tie, open top button.

                  Suit, even if the dress at work is casual?

                    Management position though. And you're stepping up from the floor. Show them you mean business.

                        To be honest, this is just my gut reaction. I'm in no way an expert on these matters. It just seems to me that if the owners like you enough to give you an interview for a step up then I would be interested in showing them I can take it seriously. That I'm also interested in taking my game up a notch. But business culture in the US isn't something I'm very familiar with.

                        My thinking is that the suit shows professional standards, charcoal and black leather is some classy shit and no tie keeps it a bit more relaxed. I bet @Appfaff would be the go-to guy for the money answer here though.

                          I agree with Neph on the suit with no tie - I only wear a tie when I want someone to be intimidated of me lol [emoji23]

                          I always do a pocket square tho to add a bit of flare and Show i k ow HOW to wear a suit, not just simply putting one on.

                          I know you’ve dropped a bunch a pounds - hit me up, I have about 5 suits that would fit you - I’d be happy to drop ship for you tomorrow  if needed [emoji869]

                            Gentlemen thank you so much. Charcoal suit it is. Putting it on the credit card. Adam
                            Thank you for the offer but my interview is Tuesday and I’d need the suit tailored by Monday night.  Yiu guys are the best. Adam, what color picker square?

                              White shirt and white folded pocket square always looks classy. I do have some bright and colorful ones I use to coordinate with crazy socks sometimes when it the situation calls.

                              Best of luck with the interview bud, you will kill it 🙂

                                      Can anyone recommend an inexpensive place to send old boots to get resoled? I want to get Vibram ripples or cristy's on an old pair… not looking to spend $300 though.
