Current Events > Scenario: You tear your pants moments before the huge businsess meeting

(+) Yeah! (+)

You're going to work one day and you're nervous but excited. Today is the big day where the Matsuzaka-Shimamoto Corp reps are finally going to sign the huge Half billion dollar deal your firm has been working hard on for years.

But while getting to work you over-extend yourself somehow and tear your pants asshole to joy department right by the front door.

You have absolutely no time to go home to change or rush to a store. This is the most important day of your career, you cannot be late for this meeting. So you check in at the door trying to be discreet but its hopeless. Security and the secetaries notice your massive tear and your bulge + unusual underpants.

They're professional/polite and don't say anything but their eyes tell the whole story and you feel embarrased. Front of house guys is one thing but you cannot expose yourself in front of your peers, let alone the Matsuzaka-Shimamoto Corp reps.

You rush straight to the meeting room pronto and are the first to arrive. Then you sit down, aha! Safety. So long as you're sitting at the table, no one will notice what is going on beneath it. You can just sit here the entire time, then once it's all signed and dusted, everyone leaves, then you rush out and change your pants. Crisis averted. "I'm so smart." you think to yourself as your co-workers file into the room and sit down.

But then your heart leaps into your mouth as you see everyone in your firm stand back up as the Matsuzaka-Shimamoto Corp reps enter the room including billionaire owner Mr Matsukzaka himself. They all walk over to their counter-pants, bow and shake the reps/Matsuzaka's hand respectfully while exchanging pleasantries. You're the only one sitting down now.

Your boss gets behind you while holding a folder and pretending to be talking businsess, then she whispers quietly but angrily "What the fuck are you doing [Surname]! Go and greet mr Matsuzaka and his men! He's come all the way here in person to sign this deal! He's legendarily facetiously dilligent! The slightest disrespect or unprofessional conduct on our part, even just the indication of such could put the entire agreement in jeopardy! You will not ruin this for us at the final hurdle. Get up right now!"

remove the pants and if they ask why. tell them you just realized they are ripped and it's not professional to wear ripped pants to such an important meeting.

Funny. I always pictured Wesley as a bit of a street tough.
