Mr. Iwase, an extremely wealthy man, had an innocent whim: he required his estate's employees (almost exclusively statuesque men) to wear rather tight-fitting athletic wear, which he himself provided for them as work clothes.
This sometimes led to amusing incidents.
For example, today Mr. Iwase walks into the dining room and there stands Ryuuto, a young student whom he often hires as a waiter for weekly dinners with friends. (Let's add that Mr. Iwase is a noble man who enjoys helping young people and employs many students part-time, offering them very high salaries. Would it surprise you if I said that the more muscular the student, the higher the salary?)
- I'm sorry, sie, but my work clothes seem a little too small.
- Oh, Ryuuto, boy, what a surprise! That outfit fit you perfectly last week!

- Yes, sir, but I spent a lot of time at the gym this week...
- Ryuuto, you're amazing, oh, I have to give you another pay raise, that's wonderful, boy, wonderful, keep it up!
- Thank you sir, but could I get some new, slightly larger work clothes first?
- But why? I think you look, hmm, incredibly stylish now.
- Really? But you know, I'm afraid I might stain your carpets, and cleaning them will definitely be expensive...
- Well, that's an expense I can handle, boy. I can't wait for the evening party and the guests' faces when they see the waiter in that outfit!

The evening party was a resounding success. And Ryuuto couldn't resist the numerous offers from the guests, enchanted by his talent as a waiter (beacuse what else could they have in mind?).
