A local Gen X’er has used his seniority and status at his workplace to make a little change to the dress code today. Specifically, he’s still adorned in the Iron Maiden shirt he wore last night when he rocked out at RAC Arena.
As the out of control train of life careens ever close to the big 50, Rod admittedly doesn’t get to party as much as he used to.
So he’s not about to waste the opportunity to show all the snowflakes at work how it’s done. We spoke to one of his younger colleagues who said Rod initially tried to play it down. Adding,
“I saw him come in and noticed he wasn’t wearing his usual Van Heusen business shirt with the biro stain in the pocket. He had a black T-shirt on under his jacket. He was creating a lot of intrigue, everyone wanted a slice”
Ever the showman, Rod waited until morning tea when he knew plenty of hungry eyes would be in the kitchenette. Just like his idol Bruce, he knows how to put on a show.
Another witness told The Times,
“I’ve never seen someone disrobe their jacket with more middle-aged swagger. He was still playing it cool as he walked into the break room and like an Ibuprofen’d up venus fly trap, he waited to feast on the adoration”
It didn’t take long before one of the new girls politely asked, “did you go to the Iron Maiden concert last night Rod?”
What followed was quite a bit of discussion about the concert. Rod even jumped into full air guitar demonstrations now matter how sore his back was.
On’ay Rod.
