I’m pretty sure that sound can be turned off.
Not hot pants.
Legal briefs.
This is the second time I’ve come into this thread and still no picture. Get on the ball!!
The hotness and relative dimness of female pharm reps is a bit of an on-going joke – support for the theory that many men really think with the smaller head, as there is a belief, if not proof, that hot pharm reps make a lot more sales, and bigger sales, than homely ones do.
Of course, there’s also the impression that most of them are trolling for a nice doctor to sweep them away from being a pharm rep, but there’s no more proof of that for the other assertion (i.e., none).
Every time in my work that a hot girl appeared she was the boss’ wife’s niece. Which she would tell you if you asked. Working for the break until starting school again,
I’m sure it can too, but only by some kind of hack fix. There is no option in the standard interface to turn off the sound. This is Japan, it’s there to stop pervs taking upskirt snapshots on the train.
Jeez, I haven’t seen any hot pants in forever. Last time was 19 years and 27 days ago. They were a 24 inch waist and were 11 and 3/4 inches long with double stitching on the seams. There was a tiny logo written in Times New Roman font that measured 1 inch by 2. Made of leather, the sheen was translucent eggshell and there was a small scratch on the left leg, 1 and 3/8 inches long.
I forget the color.
Oh yeah, it’s been ages for me too. I remember my last time distinctly too because I was at a bar and some reporter on the TV was talking about this dude being shot in some kind of a motorcade in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, and the girl wearing the hot pants was leaning way over the bar so as to hear the TV.
It was fucking beautiful man. Not a dry eye in the bar that night.
Pajama bottoms were in the wash, I guess.
Yup, that’s how it was when I was living in Japan, back in 2004. There’s no way to turn the sound off through the phone’s interface. And it’s really, really loud.
And the office, I guess!
:eek: Subtle.
I misunderstood you originally - I thought you meant hot pants as in “Those are some nice jeans”, not literally Hot Pants (sprayed-on booty shorts).
Yeah, that’s carrying “business casual” a bit too far 
If the boss is Japanese and the new gal is Caucasian, can we declare the matter pretty much closed?
Man, where were all you Japan-based Dopers when we were doing the Friday night excursions??
Probably wearing hot pants in the office.
Close, but no cigar. Friday nights, I was probably wearing jeans and a t-shirt to Harajuku, to hang out in front of Shige’s shop smoking and drinking, until we all headed out to whatever show we were seeing that night.
Do you have any idea how horrible it was to wear jeans almost every day through a record-setting heat wave in Tokyo in the summer? Not that I didn’t have shorts, but I only wore them around the dorm, 'cause as a six-foot-tall white American woman I was freakish enough–no need to accentuate those legs any more.
Well, at least she wore a suit jacket. That makes it professional.
Is it normal in Japan for a guy to openly keep a Personal Skank on the payroll?
Not on newer model phones, the most you can do is to replace the wave file of the shutter sound , with a white noise. And that means , you have to get a data cable for the phone, get a program callled bitpim or similar and find out how to navigate the directory.
Replace shutter wave with white noise and rename the white noise wave to shutter wave and hope its not digitally signed.

Not unheard of, of course, but not that normal. Somewhat less than what you would see in the US Senate, if I had to guess.
Really? I must have an older model iPhone 3GS then.
