When knowledge, skill, and desire just aren’t enough… When a man doesn’t have a job, he can’t afford career-oriented clothes. If a man doesn’t have the right clothes, he can’t get the job. Having knowledge, skill, and desire without the right clothes can lead a man into this Catch-22. It’s a sad statement but true; you have to look the part in order to get a part.
