Breast Pocket On German Shirts

Talking about working in Germany, has anybody noticed how people here all have a breast pocket on their shirts? In our group of seven, I'm the only non-German and I'm the only one without a breast pocket. Trust me, I don't go out and intentionally buy shirts without, but not one of my work shirts has a pocket. My colleagues don't own any shirts without.

sh*t my shirt has a breast pocket

got a short sleve one on and everyone asks if i'm not cold.
i just tell them that i wanted to put shorts on but the misses would not let me
it warm here today and they all have pullovers on

Do you wear glasses? I dont have breast pockets neither because I wear contact lenses but loads of ppl with glasses do, I noticed, mostly the ones who put the glasses into a box while they dont wear them and then put the box in the breast pocket

Did you ever try to find out what's in this pockets?

i dont have glasses and i never have anything in my breast pocket..

In England it would be a heat wave Bully, but here it is just spring yet

that is true

i want an ice cream

wonder what you will wear at work when it will be really hot?

Bully , find an ice cream van and I will buy you a "99" , lovely soft ice cream and a crumbly flake ... geil ...

oh , and I always carry my electronic-door-opening-card-for-the-messeturm in my shirt breast pocket ...

ok now we've got 2 brits WITH this pockets, 1 without and 1 german without. Talking about only the germans wear breast pocket shirt

Bully and I have been here a long time ... :$ :$

How did that happen? I didn't put this in as a new thread. My first post was a reply in the "Working with Germans" thread. Suddenly, I've got my own thread going on here.

For the definitive answer on breast pockets, please see below:

Thanks Luke , interesting article ...

Oh yes, that's right, we beat them 5-1, didn't we? I'd almost forgotten...

Interesting that the author of the article accuses the English of being obsessed by our 5-1 victory over them in a qualifying game on their own patch. Have you ever met a German who's not obsessed by "das Wembley-Tor" in '66???

bloody lyer!!

Still hurts, doesn't it...?

not really . Footy is ok but it's not the most important thing in my life

just my string

yes a 99 er would be great

i've got the DVD daily mirror had it going free not so long ago

so just catched up on the new posts..

yes every german (ok not you Hannah) is osessed with the "that was never a tor"
but if it was not counted we still would have won 3-2 so what is all the fuss about???

guys , I'm as patriotic as the next (english)man but don't shout too loud or someone might just ask how many finals we've reached // how many trophies we've won in the last almost 40 years ... :$ :$

(and I don't just mean my beloved Addicks )

every german apart from me who was born before 1960 maybe

how many???

don't ask

Hannah ,

you wouldn't understand , you're a girl

i dont think you have to use both hand's fingers to count it huh?

no but i have to take my socks off, i'll just leave my string on then :$

no , and it wouldn't take very long to write them down ... :$ :$ :$

now I have a vision of Bully , 99 in hand , wearing just a string ... scary ...

guys, please, i'm just having a donut (isn't there a puke-smilie)???

there are lots of smilies which we don't have access to here ... my favourite is the little guy pulling his shorts down and showing his butt

just searching for the piccy of me in my undies

... rather see a pic of the girls in their undies ... but that's just me ...
