Office Space Lives On

You remember the scene in Office Space where Bill Lumbergh announces that it is Hawaiian shirt day?

"Oh, and remember: next Friday... is Hawaiian shirt day. So, you know, if you want to, go ahead and wear a Hawaiian shirt and jeans."

Well, hubs is living this reality as we speak.

An actual email from hubs work (modified slightly to protect identities):

After consulting many colleges, we have decided that between Memorial Day and Labor every Friday will be Hawaiian shirt day. We decided to try to cheer up what has been a gloomy forecast for the year. Tomorrow it is going to be 81 degrees outside and a perfect day to wear a Hawaiian shirt but because not everyone has a Hawaiian shirt they will be optional until Memorial Day. We will not be ridiculing anyone for not participating but if you wear the same [type of shirt like you wear everyother workday] (like some people we know do, not to mention any names), do not be surprised to get a little hazing that of course is all in fun.

Have a cheerful happy Hawaiian shirt day Friday!!

Unlike Office Space, Hawaiian shirt day at hubs office is is meant to be fun and lift moral. Personally, I think it is a fantastic idea but, I will admit, I still giggled a little when hubs got dressed this morning in shirt that depicts an ocean scene complete with sail boats AND genuine shell buttons...

Happy Hawaiian shirt day everyone!
