Do you more frequently wear a tie or a band shirt?

Obvious.

Tie.  Mainly because I have a big boy job, and I'm an adult.

One of the supervisors at my job wears band shirts as frequently as I do and the only people who ever wear ties, including the management, are people who are obviously doing the whole "wearing a tie 'ironically'" hipster thing.

What kind of place do you work in? What does your company do?

Tech support call center.

On a normal week, at least once a week, as my school has it as part of their mass uniform.

I know Catholic schools often require Mass attendance during the week (don't see the point in that really since supposedly you'd be going on Sunday anyway but whatever), but they make you wear a tie to it? Wow! Considering only olds would wear a tie to church normally.

Would kids wear a polo and kakhis to school normally either? It's called a uniform. I'll be soldiers, had they never joined the military, probably wouldn't be normally wearing a US Army uniform. Uniforms aren't meant to be normal.

I'm not referring just to school uniforms, though everyone knows what I think of them (and it's not positive). But requiring a tie just one day a week for Mass implies that the school is treating this differently and requiring beyond the standard uniform, which is pretty ridiculous and an idea about 50 years old.

I wore a tie and blazer everyday in high school. I loved it and it was only irritating if it got really hot. 

The dress was moot for me but Mass was offered several times a day at my HS. We had a nice chapel and Id go from time to time at lunch. Going to church doesnt necessarily have to be a once and done thing.

Anyway, tie.

I've gone to church more than once in some weeks, including last week (if you caught my bit about going to my cousin's first communion a week ago), and to one a few times in the afternoon where I know the people involved, but Cathcon's post seemed to imply that it's mandatory which is quite different. I know lots of Christian universities have chapels and all that are open through the week but usually don't require attendance.

We had an old give the sermon this morning. And not just any old, the outgoing national director of the Vineyard Association USA (Yes seriously!) I think this might be the first time in the church's history someone over 40 has given the sermon. And he wasn't wearing a tie or was particularly dressed up. So even not all olds adhere to these dress standards, and they are quite bizarre. Cathcon's school sounds like a weird place.
