How long do your Y-fronts last at work?
With the amount of walking I am doing nowadays(like most posties) my skids usually last no more than three weeks before holes start to appear?
Five weeks and they are in tatters!
Can we get an allowance for new skids/knickers etc.?

3 weeks in one go - they are probably committing suicide.

I cannot believe someone has actually put this on.
The answer is not very long...
Is there some sort of Tax Relief one can get for this? The cost does build up over time

I find thongs last alot longer and cause less chaffing.
