In this episode of WTF is Business Casual?!, Jenny and Sarah dive into the viral debate that took over every HR person's Instagram feed. Is it okay to bring an iced coffee to a job interview? The original TikTok said absolutely not. The internet had other ideas. And Jenny and Sarah? They went through every possible emotion before landing somewhere surprisingly nuanced.

Whether you're a first-time job seeker, a hiring manager, or just someone who's been judged for their Starbucks order, this one's for you.

Honestly it's not about the coffee. It's about whether you give a damn.
