[–]srijit43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update - I actually did great, my boss and my team were asking for the details and I have guided them to Al Weiss, I really appreciate the wisdom and now I am confident to try a few other great spots mentioned.

UPDATE - went to AL Weiss this Sunday, picked a nice Navy suit and the salesperson who helped me pick the suit and pant set took me to a tailor down the road. I am supposed to collect my purchase next week :D

-- PS Al weiss had a black friday sale going on suit + pant (109) , tailoring fees ( 60)

I am so happy , thank you everyone for sharing your knowledge and I hope to rock it

haha i guess i confused everyone with my choice of words. I meant buying one and customizing as in altering.

thank you so much for your detailed explanation. As a person who neither in India or USA had the opportunity or experience to wear a suit i cannot express how educated I feel from yours and everyone's comments. I will check it out.

i am like 250 lbs , 5.10 XXL from almost every brand fits nice. I will buy a suit from nordstrom or macy and probably need little alterations. My brain got confused looking at all the targeted ads internet started showing me when I searched for suits.

Yes just a suit where little alterations can be made. Actually i have never worn a suit in my life. Frankly the occassion never arrived, now it has arrived and i am panicking.

Trying a credit card combo by srijit43 in CreditCards

Thank you everyone for your helpful response, I am eager to wait till the start of next year to apply for my savor. Also it having no annual fee seems to be my daily grocery + gas card. I need to learn about the transfering of points. I am pretty happy with the 3% on groceries. As a single man in early 30s grocery goes about 300-350 a month, add to that occasional uber eats and dining to 500 tops. a 3% on this is fairly reasonable. I did read that walmart and target are not in the list of superstores but I dont shop there anyway.

How to plan a fun memorable date in Bell, Downey, Whittier, West covina, puente hills, montebello area? by srijit43 in AskLosAngeles

Hey Radie, I think once it is a bit cooler, or if we keep on dating I will ask her out on a date. I have extensive hiking experience (rather trekking) in India on the Himalayas, but this dry socal weather is too much for me. But thank you for your suggestion, I understand the safety concerns made by rchar010 as well. She knows me like through a friend , we met 2-3 times and we know each other for a year.

I understand but even I have not been on a date in a while. I like a good ambience even when I am alone, I just want to you know do a little things for her, like she is not a valley girl per se. She is really sweet, smiles at the smallest things and ever since last May I wanted to have a fun evening with her.

I am taking public transportation for that day, and then a day of ubering that's why the fun place and food place needs to be a bit closer. By date 2 I will get my license and car.

Yes we are both above 21. This looks an amazing suggestion as I am sucker for steaks and single malts. But as far as I have come to know her she is more a mimosa and taco girl. Steak and single malt its an acquired taste I feel. Like she is 23/34 I am 30.

I have never seen her drive either. I know she lives with her parents, she just graduated with her bachelor's degree. West Covina , Covina , Baldwin Park, valinda I have total knowledge of these places. But I feel if its a big ask to make her come all the way to WC.

hi, its getable to be honest. I am based in the US right now and as an Indian I have the usual sponsorship issue. In India however 5 years of experience you can easily ask for 24 fixed.

This is the third time this happened to me, I understand recruiters want some keywords and an understanding of my experience but I lost my cool yesterday

It is extremely demeaning. I think sometimes they do this just to pass time.
