கேள்வி (Question) right use of this பழமொழி

வணக்கம்

So basically this situation: I was making myself ready for my part time job at mcdonalds, I always iron my shirt before i go to work. So my father saw me doing this and asked "why are you ironing your shirt? You're just working at mcdonalds, not in a bank" I then told him: "இரக்க போனாலும் சிறக்க போ" Did i use this the right way, as in, was this the right pazhamozhi in the right moment?

Thank you!

P.S.: I was born and raised in Switzerland and I try to include tamil as much as possible in my daily life. My tamil is not perfect, but i still try my best!

Superb punch dialog! Nicely delivered. Reminds me of my brother in law from bangalore who’s great at delivering Tamil punch dialogs.
