I Really Do Hate Fauckets

Did your head just cock to the side as you read that? Well, let me explain a Faucket to you. You see, everyone at some time in there life had been plagued by some really bad decision that was made probably centuries ago. I wear a ladies business suit to work every day. A high percentage of ladies suits lack pants pockets. That's not necessarily a problem as the jacket usually has pockets in it. However, *dun dun dun duuuuuun* my Faucket is actually in place of the real pocket. It looks like I have a pocket, when in fact I really have a useless external flap of material. *mind starts to wander* . . . back to my Faucket. I have had Fauckets in some of my slacks, usually on the backside. And then I've come to realize that they were actually sewn shut full blown pockets. I have ripped that stitching right out of there and then been on my way smiling with a real pocket.

Today I am plagued with no pockets in the pants, and 2 Fauckets in the jacket. And no additional stitching present to reveal that in fact it is a sewn shut pocket. ARGH! So to everyone and their Fauckets, I feel for you.

Little Fauckets in my jackets
Little Fauckets in my dress pants
Little Fauckets all around me
Little Fauckets I can blame

For my frustration
For lack of preparedness
For making me such a mess

Little Fauckets in my suits now
Little Fauckets all the same

And there's flapped ones
And flat ones
And truly misleading ones

Little Fauckets in my jackets
Little Fauckets all the same
