Awkward moment #359

I've noticed that the office attire around here is less formal than what I'm used to in the U.S. -- especially during the hot summer months. However, I was still surprised by the fellow I ran into outside my apartment building today.

We were approaching the apartment door from opposite directions so I got a pretty good look at him. He appeared to be carrying a briefcase and wearing a dressy t-shirt and his whitey tighties. Well, they weren't white, but you get the idea. No pants.

As we rode up the elevator together, I wondered, What kind of job does this guy have that allows him to dress like this? And what could he be carrying in that briefcase? That's when I decided to steal a look at the briefcase. But it wasn't a briefcase. It was a bag. With a wet towel inside. He must have been swimming! He wasn't wearing his underwear, he was wearing speedos!

Unfortunately, that realization didn't make the moment less awkward.
