Well, just went to wedding and I don't see any on the horizon.

Funerals....well you never know.

Job interview. The real reason. I work in IT and do interviews with some frequency. People show up in suits and it is always funny b/c they are the only one! Often people wear an old suit b/c almost no one in IT wears suits. It would be better if they wore a nicer business casual. When I will be going on jobs to interview for, they will be more managerial / leadership positions. A nice set of trousers and sport jacket would likely be appropriate, but I'll be brutally honest, I'm not very fashionable and hate shopping for clothes. Leads me to a suit. They measure me up, give me a few to try on and I'm more or less done.

Do I want a suit - no. Do I feel like you need one just in case - yes.
