| I would happily lend jackets, sweaters, or scarves to a colleague in this situation. I have all these things in my office to cope with the AC. |

| I have extra pair of pants just for this situation. I recently gained a lot of weight and I am terrified that this will happen to me or a period accident. |

That was my first thought…
I was wondering if you had a jacket or sweater that you could tie around your waist! 😝 How about tying a towel or blanket around your waistline?? If worse comes to worse - - maybe grab a few toilet seat covers from the restroom and use them to “try” to conceal…..? Lol.

I, too, had an extra pair of pants when I worked fulltime in the office. |

How did OP get home????
When I was 18, I had a skirt rip up the back seam. The very nice corporate first aid person (who I think normally just gave pre hire drug tests) had a needle and dental floss and we sewed it together with that so I could get to my car to go home. I honestly don’t remember how I got to the first aid room! The skirt was from The Linited. |

I had an extra shirt. Crawling around under a raised floor is dirty work. |

| As a woman, how do you not have an extra jacket or cape at work given the freezing air conditioning? Mind blown. |

This was the first thing I thought of! 😂 |

Scotch tape the test. Walk out and be quiet. |
Office is mostly cleared out by now, BUT STILL!

| Did OP ever provide an update? There were great ideas on here! |

| If this happens again, take the pants off and wear them in reverse. Walk out with your purse or a random bag covering the hole that is now in the front. |
