Pants

Our old operations manager who I will call Tim, was from the UK and was a real good guy we all liked pretty well. One odd thing though, he wore the same trousers nearly everyday, not the same make and model mind, but the exact same pair.

Tim left our company, and they hired a new guy who I will call Henrik. Now that Henrik has been here few months, I've noticed history repeating itself. Henrik is from Sweden, and has worn the exact same pair of pants everyday this week. I'm not the only one who has noticed this phenomenon. It is unavoidable since we have a daily meeting where we all stand and discuss projects. Since we are not seated you are forced to behold your coworkers full ensemble.

Is this a Euro thing?

When we place an ad for an Operations manager does the ad state

'Small international manufacturing company seeks euro trouser repeater'

Me? I'm sporting my J Crew cords, and they haven't been worn in weeks.

Genius! I post an item about pants and it's boring as s---. You post on the same subject and I'm laughing my head off.
