One of our people overheard this conversation between two business people at lunch. And cringed.
“He washes and irons his own shirts,” one said. The other one chuckled and said, “It shows.”
It’s arguably unfair, but it’s a workplace reality. Sometimes perfectly competent people are passed over for opportunities because the other candidate simply happens to look sharper. Yet fixing the problem isn’t hard. Let the experts at Prestige Cleaners professionally launder and press your shirts.
The difference in look between a shirt washed and pressed at home and one that has been professionally laundered at Prestige Cleaners—it doesn’t take a trained eye to see it—is nothing short of amazing. Plus, it’s way easier for you than washing and ironing at home. (There’s a good chance it’s easier on the shirts, too, thanks to our state-of-the-art washers and dryers, and the gentle, eco-friendly products we use.)
Another arguably unfair workplace reality is that many bosses are more prone to criticize than to praise. So the boss may say nothing at all when you look sharp. Still, you can bet he or she will notice.
