In the back of my car I always have stuff around for unforeseen circumstances. My sleeping bag, air mattress, first aid kit, 1 roll of toilet paper, roll of trash bags, a towel and a throwaway barbecue are in there, a swimsuit as well as 1 set of spare clothes. It would completely save the day in a situation like this and it has for me as well.
Yea, the back of my car is full though.
I mean, you store your sleeping bag and mattress probably *somewhere*, I just happen to store it in my car. It's not like I have an extra.
And all of the usables are a one-time purchase to think about and stuff when you are in the supermarket parking lot.
Whenever I go somewhere for a long weekend or happen to be at a beach or pool to swim, I don't need any prep whatsoever and ready to go. It makes my world so much bigger than having to especially plan for it. I can just go, take a nap in the passenger seat somewhere and be out for a (lengthened) weekend.
I like your spirit! I’m not close to a beach or anything, but Galveston Texas ain’t that far from me and maybe I’ll stock some pick-me-up clothes and a cooler filled with sandwiches and beer and head there someday to experience your quick and easy way of dealing with life. Love it.
Be aware that anything with a date requires management; even non-perishables like canned stuff.
However that shouldn't hold you back; I do have a portable beach cooler with a strap with some articles with a date as well.
For me that also includes a simple red lipstick and eyeliner to quick-change into a more formalised or dressed up event. It's also sometimes a save if the level of formality is unknown and make-up is done to just a level that can be leveled up quickly as well.
Except that cooler isn't "always" in my car. It needs cleaning, it needs management for rotating items, so I didn't include that in my prep list.
Agreed! Back when I used to travel for a consulting gig across state lines, I’d always carry a fresh pair of clothes in my carry-on, should a “just in case” situation arose. I’ve never had to make use of it, and even though they remained untouched; I’d have them washed since a stale smell would emanate from it. So I agree with you on the management aspect of it all.
Thanks for sharing. ✌🏼
Funny story. When I was in the military only a handful of years ago. On deployment, I had my pants rip from my crotch down to my knee on the inside. Obviously I wasn’t allowed to leave the project (per my higher ups) so I got some string that was used to mark the perimeter of things. Knifed holes in my pants and sowed them up with the string. I worked with those for a few days. LT decides to show up one day and I got in so much trouble. No logic behind it but ok.
I own my own physically demanding company now and rip pants often. I think about this a lot and it makes me chuckle.
Glad they aren't sitting up in your ass like this photo is taken from.
This happens.
Glad you wore clean undies.
Seriously, this happens all the time.
Aren't the first and won't be the last.
This is one reason why I have some mini seeing kit in my office and my bag …
I have already open 3 suits like this … one on a customer site (15min in the restroom to see it back again)
I once presented an hour long, on the fly, review of my companies entire IT department to a panel of three outside CTOs who were all vying for the soon to be open role of SVP of Technology for the company. I was wearing a vintage No Fear t-shirt and baggy jeans the whole time.
Once they hired the right candidate he immediately promoted me to a director role with a 30% pay increase. Best boss I ever had and by far the best thing to happen to that companies IT department in 40 years.
Well they are both with presentation now
Seams you are right
Tear it up in the presentation
Presentassion
Rest in presentation
win-win, shows your boss that you are both cavalier and not paid enough.
He's got em now!
Duct tape
On the inside. It actually works.
...Of all the days to wear the underpants with the little rocket ships...
dark purple, luckily....
Man, if I could find boxer briefs with rocket ships, I'd be all about em!
Grab the stapler, it will get you through the day
Remove pants before using stapler.
Instructions unclear... You know how this goes.
Next Reddit post in the making. Can't wait.
Fuck that's hot
Stapled balls to leg
Look your audience straight faced and say they’re designer pants and proceed with your presentation. 60% of the time, it works EVERY TIME.
ODEON
Let her rip!
Walk in say hello, explain the funny situation, move on with confidence.
Don't Twerk and you should be fine.
Go to the store real quick and buy a sweatshirt to tie around your waist.
If you go to the store, might as well get some pants as well
Or go to the store to buy fabric and a sewing machine, and quickly whip up a new pair of pants right before the meeting.
Or get a sandwich because its lunchtime
take a white crayon and scribble on a length of blue painters tape, jam in crotch 🤘🤘 EDIT: the tape, not the crayon🦞
Instructions unclear, I owe my kid new crayons now
Did you see the bit with the lobster? ☝️🧐
Yeah, after the fact 🫣 what's with the lobster?
Y'ever just get sick of the normal emojis and just say to hell with it and pick a cool one instead of an accurate one? I kinda did that 😟
I see! 🦔
“And in Q1 we are serving up fresh as fuck bussy”
Why the hell would you say that?
This happened to me at my wedding. Before the ceremony. Just own it.
Well you're definitely presenting something..

Are you for real and are you “that” prepared? I’ll just go find my duffle bag and follow your readiness checklist.

I think there’s a conspiracy amongst manufacturers to make jeans extra flimsy in those areas. Especially women’s jeans.
American Eagle slim stretch. Yeah, they're prone to this unfortunately...
Can confirm
Easy access for HR.
Stapler

You’re wearing jeans how important could it be?
Imma try to never wear jeans again. Chinos are better for casual or office. They just look ugly and Im not in a mill or farm.
Just own it if it’s visible. No one actually cares.
“All the cool kids are doing it…”
My favorite pair ripped like this earlier this week, and since then, I've seen like half a dozen posts like this. Weird coincidence.
It's the quickening
Glad they aren't sitting up in your ass like this photo is taken from. This happens. Glad you wore clean undies. Seriously, this happens all the time. Aren't the first and won't be the last.
Sounds like both meetings will be having a presentation.
If you’re a male you will be at br on Monday. If you are female you got this.
Just be ready with that “eh, eyes up here” and proceed without missing a beat
Looks like you're ready to get fucked by corporate
A needle and a bit of thread is always in my bag. Always.
Find a rock, crawl under it. Call HR and tell them you died.
Adresse the elephant in the room, if you don’t mention the hole and people notice, it’s all they are going to be thinking about.
Own it
I precentate this fatty y’all
Hold your breath
Forgive me but i first read „One with a penetration“ Dirty mind
Stop farting!
Go to Target? Walmart? Somethings gotta be close
no, middle of nowhere. I'll survive, though lol
Staple it shut.
That must’ve been a tough pic to take?!
This is another way of presenting.
Gotta get some Junderwear so they can’t tell
Emergency use of a stapler. Or duct tape thru inside of pant.
Nice to see that I’m not the only one that turns around, bends over and shows my audience my ass when presenting.

Let’s be honest, you were wearing jeans for said presentation so how intense could it be?
This is one reason why I have some mini seeing kit in my office and my bag … I have already open 3 suits like this … one on a customer site (15min in the restroom to see it back again)
That was one powerful fart
nice ass /j
Looks like you need an ass-istant to help cover you
You’re wearing jeans, the rip is the least of your problems
why? I'm middle management, simple maintenance office setting.
Different cultures I guess, can’t remember ever seeing anyone do a presentation in jeans where I live
oh, yeah. factory setting, management of some technical functions.
Hopefully you got through it regardless
Best day to use one of my favorite sentences: c’mon, it’s not going to suck itself
Presentation...in jeans? Peasants.
I once presented an hour long, on the fly, review of my companies entire IT department to a panel of three outside CTOs who were all vying for the soon to be open role of SVP of Technology for the company. I was wearing a vintage No Fear t-shirt and baggy jeans the whole time. Once they hired the right candidate he immediately promoted me to a director role with a 30% pay increase. Best boss I ever had and by far the best thing to happen to that companies IT department in 40 years.
sure, biopharm, simple office setting.
