New way to organize my dresser

So, Sunday after doing laundry, I came to the conclussion that the way I currently organize my dresser is inefficient. Socks and underwear go in one drawer. Jeans, & T-shirts in the next. Polo shirts and slacks for work in the next, and pajama pants go in the bottom.

Currently I have to open 4 drawers everyday. I came to the conclussion that I could just do it by day. One pair of underwear, 2 pairs of socks, one t-shirt (undershirt usually), one polo shirt, one pair of slacks, and pajama pants together. There by eliminating the need to open 4 drawers a day.

I can fit two days in each drawer which gives me one open spot for shorts or other items I don't wear everyday.


After doing all this, my GF asked how many days until UT kicked off again. I promptly answered 234.

She said I needed serious help. I explained that it would free up almost 3 hours a year from my morning ritual at about 2 minutes a week.
 
I thought about that. But, either way I have to pick out the outfits.

Of course, I am in a dificit or 30 minutes or so while I contemplated this radical change in my life on Sunday.
 
Wouldn't you still have to open 4 doors a day - it would just be the same door 4 times instead of 4 different doors once?
 
I thought about that too. I can simply put everything I'm going to use that day on top of the dresser or leave the drawer open. although that may cause safety concerns.
 
Are you saying that you only have 7 outfits you wear, ever? I think we work together. We had a pool on what color of polo you'd wear on which day. Damn you for switching the blue and red polo's the week everyone was watching. You owe me $50.

LOL! I hadn't thought about that. But no. All I have to do is choose 5 work outfits (and I do wear dress shirts too, but they don't fit into my scheme) on Sunday. It takes no extra time on Sunday....

And I have 5 drawers, the last drawer just contains all the rest of the stuff.
 
Closet is out. We live in a small apartment not enough room for me and her. The space I have is for stuff that has to hand (suites dress shirt, UT Jerseys)
 
Don't call what you're wearing an outfit. Don't ever say your car is broke.
Don't worry about losing your accent, a Southern man tells better jokes.
Have fun but stay clear of the needle. Call home on your sister's birthday.
Don't tell them you're bigger than Jesus, don't give it away.
 
I tackled a similar dilemma recently: mismatched socks. I had countless pairs of navy, brown, black and whatever - none of which matched. Every morning I'd wasted valuable goof-off time trying to find a matching pair of stupid socks.

So I threw them all away and bought a dozen pair of identical socks. Any two I grab match. Problem solved. I'm a genius.
 
Scooter -

i am with you on the socks. Many years ago I realized (too late I might add) that I was wearing 1 black sock and 1 navy sock. As soon as I got home all navy socks were thrown away and to this day I do not own a navy sock.
 
I guarantee one thing-if you rearrange your sock drawer after two years of waiting for that one navy blue sock to show up somewhere, and finally throw it away or give it to the dog tied in a knot to play with, you will find the missing sock behind the dryer, or stuck inside a winter shirt sleeve within two days.
 
Acrtually, the sock thing I figured out a long time ago. On my birthday of each year, I buy 10 pairs of black socks and 10 pairs of white socks. Get them at the same time, same type, same package everything is identical.

Done.
