Is formal wear for work required in India



Sorry friends, I know it’s a loong waiting for updating my blog. Henceforth, I will be in full swing. Hemorrhoids is the name of the disease which parted us all these days. I agree it’s a dreadful disease indeed after all these months of suffering.


When I knocked the hospitals in UK they gave me 6 months waiting period for getting my hemorrhoids operated and on the third day when I went to Chennai I was operated successfully. Hurray! to the commercialization in the medical industry in India. As it was fun to see doctors fighting to operate my bum for the price they paid for their medical college.


Topic for this blog “Is formal wear for work required in India?” I am sure the managers in India will give a strange look if you ask this question. So called formal wear was discovered by British and they prefer this only when they have meetings, interviews, etc. and you can see the CEO’s in shorts also during summer. But our men, under the 40 degrees sun, in the dust, after a burning clean shave they are in a ‘rin’ white shirt with a dashy tie and travel for miles in there motorbikes. I pity them; in fact I was doing this in Guntur for 1 year under the 44 degrees sun and the good job continued in Chennai.


Does this formal wear bring professionalism in appearance? Or will a decent cotton shirt and pant offend your customer? If a business survey taken how many will vote to the point that they bought the product for the dress of the salesman? Shame, shame puppy shame for the Indian management rules toiling the nervous ending of the organization.



By the way, this formal wear is only for men and for woman it seems it’s a chudhidhar. No doubt they are better sales people? If they need not wear a formal bow or a tie for a sales call, why should a man wear a tie? What a female chauvinistic ‘world’ in
India.
