Are you ever tempted to blatantly acknowledge the attention-seeking nature of these displays?
*Setting: A handful of executives gather around an oblong conference table on a quiet Tuesday afternoon*
tluyben2: Gee, Big-Watch, is everything alright?
Big-Watch Bob (startled, looking slightly confused): W-what are you talking about?
tluyben2: Well, Big-Watch, it's obvious to everyone here that you'd like us to notice your expensive watch. Are you feeling insecure about yourself? Don't you know you'd still be a valued team member even if you could only afford a $4,000 Tudor?
Other execs (looking up from their phones, gasping, horrified): A Tudor?!?!
and so forth...
- blitzar 5y agoYes... it never ends well. It is like joking/talking about penis size - at the bar it works out fine, Its funny to say they are small, it’s funny to say they are big. However, if you do that in a changing room where stuff is actually out on the table - it is just embarassing for everyone involved.
