Career Pants

I'm so nervous. I really want that job.
I need to go shopping.

You need to?

Yeah.

What for?

Pants. I want career pants.

What are you wearing?

No one will hire me in these pants.

You think it's the pants?

I dunno. I think it might be. But maybe it's the hair.

You can't buy career hair.

Exactly the point.
That's why I want the pants.

But what if you get the job.
You'll never take off the pants?

Don't be stupid. Of course . . .
they're just sort of like a metaphor.

A metaphor for pants?
