The heat has been quite insufferable round this time of the year even in Roses, about 30 to 33 degrees, where the sea breezes at least help somewhat; while in the south, it's reported to be up to 38+ degrees! Yet, in banks and some public governmental offices, large and prestigious companies, high officials and executives are obliged to wear suit and ties, almost permanently drenched in sweat. Sure, the work places are usually air-conditioned, but they still need to bear the immense heat on their journeys there and back, and execute their duties and tasks attending meetings, conferences, etc. to other locations within their day's work.
In this modern times, how can people's value still be judged simply by a piece of irrelevant material hanging around their neck, which has no other function than being decorative, but is still considered conventional or correct? And how can that define a man's worth, class, honesty, trustworthiness, loyalty, and exquisite manners? How simple life would be if that's really so! All the thieves, robbers, abusers, rapists, cheats and swindles need is to wear a tie which instantly transforms them into gentlemen.
The concept of correctness in dressing is, however, very, but very ample, and slack, in all other areas and spheres. Fortunately.
