For work a few times a year, mostly when meeting with international suppliers/customers - our corporate offices have become a lot more casual over the past several years, can even wear jeans if no meetings with execs, etc. And a suit sans tie is very appropriate these days in all but the most important settings.

Used to everyday but I haven't had one on in many years. Probably 6 years.
Life can be rough on us dreamers.

I've changed a lot of flat tires for guys in neck ties. With their positive covid test as their iPhone screen saver

A necktie is good for getting your ass handed to you in a fight.

A necktie is good for getting your ass handed to you in a fight. TRUTH..back in the day when I even thought I'd scuffle, I wore a clip on...bad guy grabs it expecting to start the ass whooping...SURPRISE! Now, I havent owned a tie in 30 years, and never will again.

In the oilfield they were known as suckass ropes. Never heard that in my 30 years.

TRUTH..back in the day when I even thought I'd scuffle, I wore a clip on...bad guy grabs it expecting to start the ass whooping...SURPRISE! Now, I havent owned a tie in 30 years, and never will again. I always looked them as a a good start for a hangin'. Don't know how something as useful as a scarf for keeping one's neck warm or the sun off it evolved into a friggen silly ornament with no purpose. I guess it could come in handy to tie someone up for a few seconds if necessary.

I haven't worn one in years. Doubt I could find one around here. I have no plans to ever wear one.
