SAME SHIRT
I once had a boss who would wear the same shirt every day. He would wear a light blue shirt with thin white stripes. I thought he must have a few of them. One day I went with a friend to a place to collect his clothes. He had given them for ironing. People who did not want to iron their own clothes could get it done at such places. They charge a small amount for each piece. While waiting for my friend to collect his clothes, I noticed some shirts that were already ironed. They looked like the ones my boss wears. I asked the person running the facility about those shirts. He told me that it belonged to my boss. I counted the shirts. There were 14 shirts. All looked alike. I then realised my boss must have more than 14 of those shirts since he was still wearing them when these 14 were being ironed.

Your old boss reminded me of Steve Jobs, who only wore black turtlenecks and jeans...
ReplyDeleteYes. I remember watching Steve Jobs on TV introducing new Apple products. He always dressed the same. I had another boss who would always wear white shirts. I read somewhere that such people don't want to waste time deciding what to wear.
