Bet it wasn't just once, either!

No, it was! I'm stupid, but not suicidal ;0)

I once went to work in my wife's underpants.

At least I call it work.

Well I took it to other extremes... you know ahem.... Only the once Mr Pig, have a bit of a fumble, get married, and that's your lot !

I always shower at work. Felt a bit daft when I turned up dead sweaty one day and realised I'd forgotten a towel. I still showered but had to use a combination of drip-dry and paper hand towels.

There was a bloke at work once who had a motorbike accident. When he was delivered to A&E they had to cut his trousers off. He told us "I'd run out of clean underwear, but luckily I'd put on a pair of my girlfriend's knickers. Imagine how embarassing it would've been to have gone commando." He was surprised when we didn't all agree with him....

The worst and only time i had was when the site where I work was cut-off due to a gas cyclinder over-heating.

So we couldnt go in.

Got to about 2pm and I thought; nah...i'll go training in the day it''ll be great..generaly quieter roads

Next min. get a call... come in everythings ok !

DAM!

So instead of getting changed - had everything in my backpack 'cept mr undercrackers..so the shorts sufficed and were quite comfortable!

At my old job we had showers and things, and I used to shower when I got into the office. I forgot to actually take my towel to the shower at least once a month.

merino tops are crap as towels, especially if your hair's as long as mine

If I forgot my towel I'd dance under the hot air drier.

The imagery conjured up by that statement is deeply disturbing.

I NEVER take the last item home, so worst case senario is I have to wear an item twice, which is better than no item at all.

I could walk into my office stark naked, wet, unwashed and unshaven and be ready for a client meeting in 15 mins max.

(Last summer, arrived back from a month on Mt Blanc, straight to office in full mountain gear, ice pick, crampons, 4 weeks of beard. CEO saw me arrive and made remark of a meeting in 1 hour. I even had time to get my hair cut - he was amazed)

As a minimum I keep: 2 suits, 1 or 2 shirts, shoes, socks, pants, ties, cuff links, aeroplane shaving kit, towel etc all in small locker at work and never, never ever take the last item home.

OK so we do have showers and fluffy white towels that would not be out of place in a 1st class hotel, but it's really about attitude. Be ready at all time for whatever is thrown at you. Having to be at M&S opening to buy a shirt is a sign of failure to think ahead

I'm a student so just ride in jeans and t shirt with waterproof, never get too soaked tbh and rarely have shoes / trainers with me, just use my biking ones (mtb shoes)

i've forgotten my lock once or twice tho.

 

[HLaB]

We've not got any showers, lockers or changing rooms at work. I just commute in my works trowsers (sometimes over trowsers if needed) and by work shoes always stay at work. However I wear a cycling top and remove that when I arrive and put on a Shirt, I've forgotten the latter a few times.

 

[merlin321]

Always kept spare socks, grundies, t-shirt and jeans at work in the locker, which is ok except when you leave the key for the locker at home.
What makes it worse is that I`ve done it more than once.

I know, I know, get a spare key.
