Any industry with a higher than average proportion of fops, ponces and dandies?

nobody uses hospitality as an incentive in consultancy
it wouldn't make any sense - a handful of Lion King tickets would cost less than I'd charge to chat to them on the phone
nobody from a zillion dollar tech company needs us to butter then up

read your original post again ... you seem to have confused yourself
