I need help.

I have just visited the mens room and i have managed to bust my zip on my suit pants. To make things worse, i have bright coloured boxers on!

Any ideas on a quick fix to save my embarrassment before my colleagues arrive.

The damn stapler wont even work.

You require Safety Pins.

They are quite often found in first-aid packs for attaching bandages. It's possible your receptionist/first aider may know where some are. It's either than or it's off down the shops for you, matey..

safety pins?

tinned copper wire works well but unless your in a manufacturing job it probably is not that easily availible

needle and thread (any nearby hotels?)

if all else fails put something dark down your trousers so at least it might go unnoticed...

Have you thought about carrying something around with you whenever you need to get up? Just casually place it near your crotch, nobody need ever know...

Safety pins or a needle and thread for a quick fix to get you through the day! It happens to all of us - I've ruined a few suit trousers getting in and out of the Elise!

I just had to nip to the loo and had to keep my hands casually down in front of my crotch!

We dont have any safety pins! Arghh.

Colour in the front of your boxers with a black permanent marker pen - That'll do the trick!

Duct tape. Any problem can be solved with duct tape. This is a fact.

Oh yes, duct tape all the way. I had two pairs of shorts, both the same, that I use(d) for work. The first pair ripped from wiast to upper thigh when I bent down to pick something up, and duct tape fixed it. The second pair tore in the same way, only I was working at a different branch with a number of other people. It was the breeze caressing my cheek that gave it away, but fortunately I was able to locate some ultra heavy duty tape.

Get a black marker pen and colour your boxers in.
