As a result, I always overdress for meetings. I can always remove my suit jacket or loosen my tie and roll up my sleeves. However, I can't excuse myself and put a tie on once the meeting has begun.

I completely agree with you, Kelley! Whereas dressing up allows you to adjust the dress code to some degree, dressing too casual provides no flexibility, if the situation unexpectedly demands it.
