I'd wear ties to go on job interviews in Hawaii and on the mainland.
Normally, a guy from Hawaii would never wear a tie but you gots to use
everything you got to get a job. I'd recommend wearing a tie to any job
seeker. OTOH, if you're trying to get a job at Taco Bell, you're just
going to look like a big doofus.
Of course, I'm not talking about a bow tie. OTOH, if you're trying to
get a job as a circus clown, it probably wouldn't hurt...
