"That really just happened"


Met up with the Exec team at Diera Mall this morning for a day of visits all over the UAE. As we approached the gate to the store it was open about three feet, and everyone I was with was like 5'6-9" so they all scurried under and I was like.... "umm...." well I wasn't going to have the store manager come over and open up the gate JUST for me, so I was like - I can do this. As I got just under the gate thinking I was going to embarrass myself and fall over- end up rolling into the store- an even more UN-IMAGINEABLE thing happened- my pants exploded! LOL It was so loud too they thought I had caught myself on the gate or something- myself, I thought I had been shot- one of those- I know something just happened but I don't know what and I was kinda disoriented by it! (laughing out loud as I write this because it was just so hilarious). Standing up I felt the very open-ness of the back of my suit, and yes. It happened. So the store manager had started talking to the team and I whispered to my boss- I just split open my pants which he looked at me and I turned around and he lost it. Thank god I had on black underwear today not a camoflouge or red pair! Then everyone had to see it- yep- those seams were under some big pressure- it split all the way up- the only thing keeping the top together was the fact I had on a belt!
So we carried on the visit, and as we still had 6 stores to visit today and it was 9:10am, I went to Zara on the way out of the mall to get some new pants, thank goodness they had my size and the color, so I carried on.
"Yes, this really just happened"
