Work-appropriate shades

Haven't heard this one on WSO before but might be helpful for our West Coast professionals.

What constitutes work appropriate sunglasses? I currently rock what one might consider "bro shades" (think thick rimmed Spy / Von Zipper / Carrera) when grabbing lunch during the week. Admittedly, they clash with my business casual and am interested in hearing different perspectives.

 

The problem with RayBans is that plenty of light can still enter your eye from the sides and from above, and your eyes are not completely shrouded from view. Get wrap around mirrored shades with the frame made of something sturdy like polished aircraft aluminum in black. I have three pairs of mirrored lens. One black, one red (think Cyclops from X-Men) and one that is colorless (that is, it is a perfect mirror reflection of whatever is being reflected)

You have any pics? They sound like they may be goofy based on your description but interested in seeing how they look.

Hey blastoise - the button fell off the dick hole on my favorite boxers and sometimes my dick flops out, and if I forget to zip the fly on my pants, as i often do, my dick falls out the front of my pants. Usually I dont notice until I walk in front of the cooling duct by my desk and my meat helmet feels particularly cold, and it can take hours for that to happen.

Is this going to be a problem at my internship?

Thank you in advance.

 

The only appropriate time to wear sunglasses at an investment bank is while you're packing all your shit into a cardboard box with two security guys standing behind you after getting laid off for being so fucking stupid you can't figure out that you should take your sunglasses off inside at work.
