ASk A Bumps -
DEAR ASK A BUMPS:
I work in a very weird office environment the professionals I work with are older, in their 60’s. The support staff is young, dumb and full of cum.
I lie right in the middle of these worlds, not old enough for Viagra and not young enough to do keg stands. On one side I get to hear about miscarriages in toilets after one night stands and on the other I get to hear about hip replacement surgery. While I like to stay locked in my own office left to my thoughts and farts, I feel like I segregate myself too much at work. I don’t want to talk about ointment, and I don’t want to talk about jauger bombs and redbull either. What do I do?
Signed,
Why can’t people where suits to work anymore.
Dear Why can’t people wear suits to work anymore:
You are asking the wrong Bumps. This Bumps encourages as much anti social behavior as possible and my reasoning lies in your signature. In 2008, People have no class. Lock your door. Create an escape hatch that goes from your office directly to your car. Stay away from those troglodytes. Do not pass go. Do not stop for salt cheese. It sucks being socially separated from your coworkers, but look, you aren’t 60 and you aren’t in a fraternity. I’m guessing they all wear jeans and t shirts to work. You do not need one more friend who wears denim trousers. You need people who make you look good. That said, miscarriages in toilets is always good water cooler talk.
Sincerely
from time to time i wear a suit to work usually on fridays (its my revolt to casual fridays i call it formal fridays) the one thing i will tell you is it is very disruptive to the work environment. do not do this if you are trying to go unnoticed. you will get more attention in your office then you ever have and the running joke will be “what do you have an interview?” anyway i agree people in modern times have no class last time i went to the symphony i saw way to much business casual attire. come on people this is the symphony show some class. but anyway work is for working not socializing.
At lunch I was asked to Compare and contrast my Bald Britney. This make people lose their lunch. The female who said it was talking about our Mii characters on our Wii’s. We both have a Bald Britney Spears Mii. I didn’t want to be there, she then asked what shirt steak was, and I pretended to get a cookie and left.
i want to start extreme casual fridays where everyone comes in naked. ohhhh yeaaaahhhhhhh
I have had the same problem at work KT. I dont like dressing down ever. If I am in jeans, it basically means im wearing sweat pants. If I could sleep in my stilleto boots I would. however, when I dress normally (up) at work I get all kinds of shit for it, includng but not limmited to the ubiquitous “goin on a job interview?” question all day. my coworkers barely even wear shoes. HAte
what kind of offices do you guys work at?
We make magic happen. When you do that you are allowed to wear what you want
Dude, when you make the magic happen, you eat slop, you dress like slop and you fart like slop. Its horrible.
im eating a zone bar and wearing jeans and dirty sneakers…this is true
by “make the magic happen” i can only assume you mean porn. in which case you are correct, shirt and tie, a snappy pant suit, is absolutely necessary.
God I wish all our friends made porn all day, the grumblings of the work place would be so much more nasty. “Can you believe she didn’t wipe?”
When It comes to work clothes I try to dress up and not look like a d-bag. But I usually end up wearing a western shirt, denim or corduroy jeans and black chuck taylor’s. So basically I’m dressing like a big kid.
