    I would buy some cheap pants and keep shortening them bit by bit every day to see what happens.

    Or you know what, no. It would just be an idea. I am a coward. I’d follow the rules if they said to kiss the CEO’s hand on arrival, and shoe on departure. Who am I kidding, I’d do nothing.
    Back to realistic pessimism.

      I’m in retail management.

      One time I spent a couple months wearing fake eyelashes that gradually got longer and more extreme until someone verbally called me on it. Then I said I didn’t know what they were talking about and stooped westing fake eyelashes after that. I never explained to my employees it was a joke. We just never brought it up again lol.

      Moral of the story : us managers may have to act all “no nonsense” but we are very much as bored at work as you. We just can’t say it. So… fake eyelashes.
