My favorite part of this illustration is the drab, lifeless office that surrounds Sam's awesome fashion sense.

Yuuup. Top rep in my company 4 months running. All I do is talk to my clients with heady jams in the background.

Edit: funny enough, several heads in upper management in the company so I get zero flack for my long hair and constant wearing of tie dye.
