    When would Max’s stepfather himself need emergency pants? Maybe in case of spilled coffee while at the office.

    Emergency pants? Is that what they call them now? 30 years ago it was just an extra pair just in case.. But times do change, don’t they?

    Nowadays you don’t need ‘emergency’ pants because there are adult diapers.

    When I taught Kindergarten, I always kept an emergency outfit on hand. You never know when/if a child will be sick, spill paint, drop food, or hug you with muddy hands and dirty up the clothes you’re wearing. Nothing is worse and more distracting than being wet, dirty, or smelly when you’re trying to teach 5 year old kids.Some weeks, I’d change clothes every day. My husband and kids teased me about it, but it’s still my number one rule I tell new teachers.

    I’m with Wally.

    Whenever I leave town I carry a spares of sox, underwear tee shirt and glasses. And I’m seriously considering adding shoelaces to the kit. And yeah: If I’m flying, those are carried on, not checked.

    I developed diverticulosis in my mid-40s and due to a “surprise” visit by a bout of diverticulitis one day, never leave the house without a change of clothes. Thankfully I was in the office alone that day catching up on some paperwork. (Turns out in more ways than one.)

    “Well, let’s see what’s in here”, says Wally, “Extra pants, heavy duty gas mask, heavy duty room deodorizer, heavy duty rubber gloves, emergency hazmat suite. Looks like everything is here.”
