I just had to share this with you guys. So I get into work a little late today, around 8:30. Usually by this time the parking lot is full, but I was surprised to see there were plenty of spots available this morning. So I come up to my office, and realize a lot of people arent here today. I just assume it is because most took the day off since yesterday was the holiday. So I check my email, do a little work, and see two guys walk by my office wearing flip flops and shorts. Sure enough, they tell me today is a company holiday. I really had no idea. I'm going home.
Seriously, I'm here hacking up a lung. I would've called in except there are already two people out so I didn't want to make it harder on the others who are here. So, in short, I still hate you.
Very true. I'm hoping the continuous coughing coming from my cube will lead to them asking me to leave. Check my post in the that thread about cars parking on the freeway.
No - I'm working. The context of my post wasn't very clear. I kinda meant it like, "Some of us have to work today".
Actually I think what you did was analagous to finding $20 in your pocket. It's much better then not going to work only to find out that you needed to. Now, here's what you do: Before you leave the office send some e-mails to your boss and your bosses boss. That way you can say that you went into the office to get some work done (despite the fact that it was a holliday) and it will look as if you are a dedicated trooper.
I dumped nearly an entire shaker of salt into my breakfast sandwich this morning because the lid came off (it was one of those salt grinder thingys). I think I am the bigger idiot...thank you very much.
I felt like an idiot yesterday. After partying Sunday night until 5 am my family got me out of bed at noon to take them to eat. I think I would have still been over the legal limit had I been pulled over on the way. We went to Los Cucos on 249 which was tolerable but not very good IMO. When we went to leave I couldn't find my keys. I went back and checked the table, no keys, double checked my pockets, no keys so I figured I left them in the car. I walk up and see them hanging from the dash. Luckily the door is unlocked so I open the door and the AC hits me in the face... I left my car running in the parking lot for over an hour and no one stole it. My family gave me the business all day long.
