    No need to pick on the leftness Pete.

    I know the counter! Don't wear the damn things. Long ago while managing a department in a hospital I told my boss no more ties unless it was required . I felt it cut me off from some of the people I was trying to work with. Plus I never like anything around my neck ( even without the chokehold) . Of course the person most likely to have tried to choke me was a certain volatile red head I'm been married to for a few decades. LOL He agreed and I developed a great relationship with patients, families , staff and even admin ( who wished they could do the same)

    I haven't worn a tie in... 15 years, maybe longer.

    Except on job interviews and even then I wondered. If someone isn't going to hire me because I didn't wear a tie then maybe they're not a good fit for me.

    I still own one, I'm not sure where it's at though. It's power orange.

    Ties? I have lots, and they all look like these ^^^, although they have been collecting dust for the last decade plus...
