Here's a synopsis of how I received my commercial certificate...
Me:
"That simulated engine failure in the pattern was nearly the death of us, but check out the crease in these pants!"
Examiner:
"Quite the professional! Which certificate would you like today?"
Me:
"Privaeeerrrr....make it Commercial."
Examiner:
"I'll start typing while you tell me where you found that lovely necktie!"
Maybe it's me, but I always thought the folks who went out of their way to dress up for a checkride were trying to compensate for something else.
