I still have to sit two more hours at the office, it's fucking hot, and I think I'm alone in here: should I take my pants off?

It's 30 degrees Celsius outside, and I'm bloody sweating here. There's no one in this floor, but what if there's still someone in the upper floor, and she comes here and caughts me pantless?

I sure hope you mean pants US meaning, not UK meaning. Otherwise, EEEUUUWWW.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:20 (nineteen years ago)

Just pants, I'd still have undies underneath them.

― Tuomas, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:21 (nineteen years ago)

I doubt she'd be too bothered. You have had sex with everyone in your office block already, right?

― C J, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:22 (nineteen years ago)

... And she has seen the pics online.

― nathalie, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:23 (nineteen years ago)

I think I'm gonna scout the building to see if there's anyone still here.

― Tuomas, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:27 (nineteen years ago)

I'd somehow always presumed that pants were entirely optional for Tuomas and his co-workers.

Can you put a sign on the door saying "WARNING: PANTSLESS OFFICE, ENTER AT YOUR PERIL"?

― accentmonkey, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:29 (nineteen years ago)

If you're worried about being caught in your pants, I'm sure one of your female co-workers has left a skirt hanging around somewhere. That should still be pretty cool.

― Matt DC, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:30 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, it'd be great to put signs on peoples' office doors anyway. Like, "WARNING: PRE-MENSTRUAL SHOUTING AND THROWING THINGS DAY, ENTER AT YOUR OWN PERIL"

― C J, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:32 (nineteen years ago)

Why would a female co-worker have left a skirt hanging around? What did she wear to go home that day?

― C J, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:32 (nineteen years ago)

yes, take them off. ffs. no one will be shocked; they know you.

― emsk, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:33 (nineteen years ago)

Most of my coworkers are middle-aged female office workers, I haven't really displayed my more flamboyant sides to them, I don't think they'd understand.

― Tuomas, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:35 (nineteen years ago)

People have different online personae?

That's shocking.

― C J, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:36 (nineteen years ago)

Different work personality. Online I'm pretty much the same as on my free time.

― Tuomas, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:37 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe those middle-aged female office workers are all swingers in their spare time.

― C J, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:38 (nineteen years ago)

In which case Tuomas's afternoon could be more interesting than he bargained for. And the background music could get a lot worse.

― accentmonkey, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:44 (nineteen years ago)

I have a skirt in my drawer at work. (from when I was going out to the pub after work and took my jeans in in my bag to change into but didn't want to go to the pub with my skirt in my bag)

― ailsa, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:45 (nineteen years ago)

go into toilet and remove underwear, you'll be a lot cooler wearing just the pants

― Heave Ho, Friday, 10 August 2007 11:45 (nineteen years ago)

It's 30 degrees Celsius outside, and I'm bloody sweating

― gabbneb, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:09 (nineteen years ago)

Gone to shit within four posts

― Dom Passantino, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:10 (nineteen years ago)

't really displayed my more flamboyant sides to them

It's not the sides which should worry you.

― nathalie, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:14 (nineteen years ago)

Tuomas you must don sackcloth and repent.

― blueski, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:17 (nineteen years ago)

"what is a sackcloth?"

― nathalie, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:18 (nineteen years ago)

Okay, the pants are off! I feel so liberated! Everyone should try this!

― Tuomas, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:26 (nineteen years ago)

You should petition for air-conditioning.

― Ms Misery, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:46 (nineteen years ago)

if the choice is between installing air-con and Tuomas removing his undies...

― blueski, Friday, 10 August 2007 13:47 (nineteen years ago)

CLOSE ALL THE WINDOWS!!!

― Mark G, Friday, 10 August 2007 14:30 (nineteen years ago)

There is really no need for A/C in Helsinki.

― Ed, Friday, 10 August 2007 14:32 (nineteen years ago)

If Tuomas is needing to remove clothing in his office. . .

Wasn't there a tornado in Brooklyn this week? It is the end times my friends.

― Ms Misery, Friday, 10 August 2007 14:35 (nineteen years ago)

occasionally needing to remove trouser != need for A/C

Incidentally what is the weather like in Helsinki, I am there from monday. Fancy a Pint next thursday?

― Ed, Friday, 10 August 2007 14:37 (nineteen years ago)

Obv., it's hot.

― Ms Misery, Friday, 10 August 2007 14:39 (nineteen years ago)

Okay, the pants are off! I feel so liberated!

You know what would cool you off even more? Sitting in a giant dish of ice cream.

― kenan, Friday, 10 August 2007 14:43 (nineteen years ago)

one year passes...

It's so hot now, I feel like doing this again. Unfortunately there are still other folks here at work.

― Tuomas, Monday, 29 June 2009 12:58 (seventeen years ago)

Go for it -- it's Finland, nobody will care.

― Beanbag the Gardener (WmC), Monday, 29 June 2009 13:02 (seventeen years ago)

Thank god my office has minimal dress code.

just pants would be pretty minimal
