Dare I ask...can I get away without wearing a suit?

Sure, and they will change their payscale because your rebel attitude is going to be a wake up call for them.
As a matter of fact, why don't you just get regular pants, just normal white shirts not a pilot shirt and don't even bother buying the hat either. That first year FO salary will be pretty low to afford a uniform, right?

A lot of people had great suggestions. Unless an employer tells 'don't ware a suit' , ware a suit!

It was complete sarcasm about the regional salary bud. Wrote that stressed out about an interview and was trying to make myself and maybe others smile.

Or look at it as an investment. Ive got a suit thats very nice, then 2 others that are ok, nothing major. You dont need to dress like Al Capone, but you shouldnt look like Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinny.

"Are you mockin' me with that suit?"

"Are you mockin' me with that suit?"

"What's a yute?"

"I shot the clerk?!?!?!?!"

'Wearing a suit' may in fact be one of those canned answers they want, too.

"Do you care enough about getting this job to wear something at least resembling a suit? We like that here, and it's commonly known if you ask."

"Not really."

"Thanks for coming out. Don't call us- we won't call you. Have a good day."

wear one of those suit t-shirts:beer::dunno::rotfl:

Now THAT would be funny.

Maybe we could get someone to wear one of the tuxedos from 'Dumb and Dumber'?

Should probably just wear a t-shirt, and when they ask how you think that they could possibly hire you when you're just wearing a t-shirt, you tell them: because I've got REALLY nice pants.
