Naked is fine, as long as you aren't choking your chicken during the interview...

Depends on the job you are applying for.

Now...

If you're doing the PI AT YOUR CURRENT PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT...LOCK THE DOOR!

If it's a cubicle, follow your current company's policy concerning "casual Fridays" - just in case the PI doesn't work out!

Pornstar. LOL!

Actually I was just wondering. You know the trick about imagining the audience naked while making a speech? I was just wondering if it worked the other way around, or maybe how wearing a suit could make you seem a little more assertive on the phone, like how people can sense when you're smiling on the phone.
