A disastrously embarrassing day as on my way to a voluntary work co-teaching assignment when a colleague noticed what I didn't. My trousers were splitting up the front. With no time to get changed I could hardly address the students, so I decided it was best to pull out of the assignment and come home.
I'm so stoopid! Not noticing it myself means everyone will probably find out about it. Doh!

I had that happen to me with a pair of shorts once. I was about a half mile from home and had to walk back through a busy downtown that way. I feel your pain!

@teamfreak16 it felt more painful than funny - I feel like whatever I wear on future visits I'll be scrutinized and inspected closely

That's lousy luck but at least it was discovered before you stepped in front of the class. That would have been much worse.

It happens. I recently walked to the main road, went on a 4-mile bus journey, walked the length of the hospital, sat in two waiting rooms, saw the doctor, waited again, had a consultation with a nurse lasting over an hour - and only then noticed that my flies were undone. Sounds like your malfunction may have been a bit more noticeable, though.

@asfarasiknow just a small area of pink skin - not in itself too directly an exposure but enough to say that I needed to cancel my plans

@amadeo the one who noticed and pointed it out to me was one of the paid staff ladies in charge of the project.

Oh, what a blooper. I hope the tale does not follow you too far.
