I have already discussed my feelings on sewing. Hemming is almost worse than sewing, because hemming is something I have to do, rather than something I am doing by choice.
Now, let us discuss chef pants. Chef pants are designed 1. for men, 2. to be washed and worn a gazillion times until they fall apart, 3. out of enough fabric so that in the event they catch fire, the actual pant is nowhere near skin and finally 4. for men. Given these factors every pair of pants I get for work I need to hem. Lots.
I got two new pairs of pants this week to replace ones with holes that were potentially against the company's HR policies. So now, I must hem.
Can you tell I'm trying to delay?
I hate hemming.

If the thread's expensive enough, you can always take them to a dry cleaners & they'll hem them for you for like $5. :)
Funny you mention thread cost...I had to buy a spool the other week and did a double take at the price tag. I chucked it off to buying from an unfamiliar store but now I wonder, hmmm. As for hemming, I am right there with you. It seems like it should be an easy thing to do. I did figure out how to do it on my machine once but I think it was just an accident.
Since my machine is inherited from my mom it ways like 38 pounds and is a serious pain in the neck to pull out, set up and work with.
Almost as annoying as hemming. :)
