SON OF A...

I got to work, realized either my washer or drier had ripped my jeans rightttt through the crotch. :headbang:

Did you realize it before or after the meeting with the boss?

Or running into the younger members of the team, particularly those of the opposite gender!?   Stapler/Duct tape in an emergency.

I realized it when someone from HR wrote me up! Just kidding. Realized as I got out of my car.

Before. Although I never really do this, I think today might be a good day to start crossing my legs!

Just sit at your desk with the chair pulled in and it will look like you're working real hard. "Can't talk - busy."

Back in my Radio Shack days, I was cleaning stuff up before opening.  I walked by the computer display and my pants got caught and ripped all the way off.  Packing tape and a quick trip to Kohl's fixed my problem.

Back in college, I used to take the bus a lot -- to school, to my internship, to my waitressing job, etc.

One not-so-fine morning I boarded the bus to go to school.  I sat down on the seat and rrrrrrriiiiiip!  The denim cutoffs I was wearing ripped right across the butt.  All. The. Way. Across. Both. Cheeks.

Nice.

Fortunately I was wearing a pair of opaque tights underneath.  (I had changed my major from Theater to Electrical Engineering a few months previously and still dressed like a theater major.)

I was going to tell you to "hang in there" but I thought better of it.    You might be better off hanging out instead.

Do electrical engineers really dress better than theater majors? I'm not so sure about this one. Furthermore, maybe this was the beginning of the ripped shorts and tights style. Didn't 80's groupies wear these sorts of things? (disclaimer: I do not know your age, I am simply using a time period as a reference )

EE majors don't dress better than theater majors...but they do dress differently! 

And you're not too far off on the time period...this was in the 90's. 

Oh, and if you're going to repair your pants using a stapler, I recommend you proceed with some caution.
