    I’m not saying a random middle manager couldn’t afford these clothes, but having a big enough house for this closet is not in their price range.

    Real eastate prices have exploded, and the salaries are not following, unless you are a top executive.

    I’m mid 30s now, and back when I started as an intern, the managers were living in big-ass houses with heated pools on some hillside, driving giant BMWs. By the time I got there, us managers are lucky to own a small apartment in the city or a crumbling house in the suburbs.

    Corporate careers are not what they used to be, workers are exploited by capitalism everywhere, just to a diffetent extent.
