I was stunned. I tell this story to all my west coasty friends and they can't believe it. Is this a valid test? Maybe, maybe not. More often than not though, when I am in a suit, people are much nicer to me.

I just want something comfortable. A suit is wicked nice, and I love mine. But after years of wearing fitted everything while working in a law firm, all I want is comfortable maneuverability. Also comes in handy when crawling through tight spaces for cabling. The suave guy in a suit will always get better service. Professionalism over comfort. Besides, suits suck when it's 100% humidity.
