Businessmen with Backpacks
From time to time in New York I’ve seen businessmen in suits wearing backpacks while commuting. Backpacks are for schoolchildren and campers. People in backpacks don’t seem like credible business people to me. The irony is enhanced when seeing a backpack made of leather – it’s still a backpack and now you look like a student in Japan. Can’t those people fit their documents and their lunch in a different bag? If they really need to lug many books and papers back and forth they should take a small suitcase that can be rolled or held in one hand. At least then they’ll look like a consultant, not like they’re going camping or to school. At the very least they’ll save their clothing from tell-tale creases.
