\"nudeIn a previous post<\/a> I wrote about telling the people at work about your lifestyle. I received some interesting comments on that post, either on the post itself and also through various social media (yes, I pretend to be social, like on Twitter<\/a>, Mewe<\/a> and occasionally even on Ello<\/a>).<\/p>\n

It’s clear that by far not everyone has the good fortune to have colleagues or co-workers with open minds that will accept the clothes free way of life. That basically sucks, even when there’s little you can do about it. Going out to find a new job because of that is rather drastic.<\/p>\n

Another side of things<\/h2>\n

One day at work, this past hot summer, I had a very interesting encounter. A co-worker came to me and whispered, “I saw you in your car yesterday”.<\/p>\n

\"\"The reason for her whisper was that she’d seen me just before driving off. When it’s really hot I don’t want to wear clothes in my car so once in there I take everything off before leaving the parking lot. Since the building where I work is in town it’s hardly surprising someone sees me. Honestly I don’t care one bit about that. It’s my car and my sanity. If they really want to look into my car they should be prepared to deal with what they see.<\/p>\n

To said co-worker I said, “Good for you. Have you tried it yourself?” Hardly surprising that the answer was ‘no’, followed by the question why on earth I was doing that. Was I some kind of exhibitionist?<\/p>\n

No. I am not. I simply want to be comfortable and I did my best to explain that to my co-worker. Of course the concept of being comfortable made sense, but… “we have air conditioning for that.” This response is the default for modern people. I explained that taking your clothes off often makes that you don’t have to switch on the A\/C in your car. Nor in your home if you have such a thing there and that is a huge cost saver. That information in turn triggered even more disbelief because “you don’t walk around naked at home.”<\/p>\n

To that I could only say, “Wrong. I do. You<\/em> clearly don’t, but that’s not my problem.” It was nice to turn things around. Dear co-worker wanted to make my way of life my<\/em> problem but with a simple statement I turned that into the opposite. It also made for a surprised person who had nothing more to add.<\/p>\n

Of course I drove home naked that day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
