Would you all go to work if, like, driving into work, you had like a stain on your shirt, like you spilled coffee on yourself? Would you still go? I mean, I probably would. I carry a tide pen. I'd be like, fuck it. Right, like a tied pen. I mean, it is that thought. If you're like, I'm all the way here, I'm going to do it. And I guess it depends how big it is. But you can have a tide pen to take care of a stain. What if you had a hole? A large hole. Do you carry a sewing kit with you? I do not. Can you sew? I can't. I can't. But no, I don't carry a kit. But I have had my pants split at work before and I stayed. I just wrapped a jacket around my waist to cover my ass. Yes,

yes, that old trick. Well, so I had something similar. What did you do? I was driving equivalent.

It took like, you know, it was like five miles, but living in a big city with traffic, it took me like

an hour to get to work. And I was like two minutes from work. I was driving up Piedmont Avenue in Atlanta. And I was pregnant. And I was wearing my, my nice pair of like maternity pants, which is like, you know, I had one pair and I would wear them a lot. But I was driving. And all of a sudden, I'm like, about to get to work. And I look down and I hear, and I look. And it was a large rip. And it was like upper thigh towards like really like really upper thigh, big upper thigh, big hole. And I just remember looking down and being like, God. Like in the crotch? Like the inside. Yeah. It was basically getting towards the crotch. But it wasn't, like, I guess it was false.

Like, I didn't have a jacket.

I didn't have something I could take off to wrap around, for example. But so I did that thought in my head. And I remember thinking to myself, do I call my colleague and ask her? Like, do I call someone for myself? I was like, no. Or just like advice. I'm just going to go in.

It's fine.

But so I walked in,

but it was like a large office building.

And so I did the shuffle.

I did like advice. I'm just going to go in. It's fine. But so I walked in, but I, it was like a large office building. And so I did the shuffle. I did like that, that like the Lego character, two legs together shuffle. And I walked through from the parking garage to that and I realized I didn't have my key card with me. But I worked at at the time a radio company where the executives of it also owned a magazine

company.

And all of the junior workers of the magazine company, it was like devil wears Prada because

it was like luxury.

And so I got a 100% success rate of any time I didn't have my key card being able to peg

someone that was

going up to the 23rd floor, whatever we were. And so I remember like following behind, like shuffling in. Excuse me. Everything is awesome. Excuse me. And going there. But yeah, but I remember all day, like all day waiting until the last second. Because also I was where we were in legal, we were right next like the executive, you know, level bathrooms, like the nice, you know, whatever, the nice side bathrooms. And so like trying to shuffle and who am I going to see are they judge my, but like I did that shuffle all day long. I could not have been more delighted to get home and put on a pair of fully non-holy sweatpants at the end of the day. I would have been like trying to staple my pants

back together. I mean, yeah, I was like thinking of things. I do think, I do think our assistant gave me like a hoodie or something at some point to like put around and I'm like I'll bring it back. I probably still have it. But yeah, so I it's it's like that's the problem with when you're in the office. So if your people are in the office, you've got to deal with their real life.

Like people are going to come in with holes in their pants. They're going to have shit spilled on them. And you got to do it because otherwise they're going to turn around and be like lit up in their mind with with frustration. Yeah. So yeah, I was take your thighs to work day. gone home and changed my pants or stopped at a store or something real quick if like the commute was long, knowing that it keeps spreading. It keeps spreading. You know what I mean to? All of a sudden you're like open crotch like at work, you know? It was breezy. It was real breezy. It was breezy in that office. I mean, I thought, again, I thought about going home.

Was it long commute?

Yeah, long commute.

I'm like, I'm not going to drive back to Decatur.
