Place I work had a rule that men could not wear shorts, but women could wear capris…. I went out and bought a pair of capris and wore them to work and shortly after, men could wear shorts. Fuck dumb rules.
I would buy some cheap pants and keep shortening them bit by bit every day to see what happens.
Or you know what, no. It would just be an idea. I am a coward. I’d follow the rules if they said to kiss the CEO’s hand on arrival, and shoe on departure. Who am I kidding, I’d do nothing.
Back to realistic pessimism.
One time I spent a couple months wearing fake eyelashes that gradually got longer and more extreme until someone verbally called me on it. Then I said I didn’t know what they were talking about and stooped westing fake eyelashes after that. I never explained to my employees it was a joke. We just never brought it up again lol.
Moral of the story : us managers may have to act all “no nonsense” but we are very much as bored at work as you. We just can’t say it. So… fake eyelashes.

Do you still wear the capris?
Yes. They are comfy around the house pants.
