View Full Version : I'm Playing Hooky Today
This past Tuesday, 5 guys called in sick at work. It really fucked the rest of us that showed up. Yesterday (Wednesday) 6 guys called out. I got fucked again.
Today it's my turn.
It's a beautiful day, I've got a ton of things to catch up on around the house, and I don't need the stress of covering other people's asses at work all week.
Fuck 'em.

The pollen or whatever in the air the past few days finally fucked me up enough to cause me to call out.
So I'm home but not really enjoying it. Up now, probably nap this afternoon. The most I will probably get done is some laundry, if I'm awake.
I really need to take a "Sanity Day" from work, but I can't afford to because these stupid sick days pop up ever few weeks.

Yeah, but how is he going to get his girlfriend out of high school?
Damn, wish I could have taken today off. I'm off to a meeting where they will show me how to complete my annual report (which no one reads).

I am so due for a sick day. A vacation too! I hardly ever take any. My first five years of my job I took 2 sick days. When I found that out.... that made me sick!
I guess that made sense when I read this article yesterday:

Back at work today. Yesterday wasn't a good day off, I napped twice and generally felt like crap. Accomplished nothing, not even a load of laundry.
Back today on alergy meds. Not that great a day.

I have WAY too many vacation days, and my company wants us to keep a lower balance, so it's three day weeks for me for a lot of the summer. Cant say I am complaining.

I woke up today with a very distinct feeling that I need to take the day to clean up the things that I have, admittedly, let slide as of late.
So I have called off ... a mental health day of sorts, I guess.

I'm very tempted one day next week to play hooky. I would a day this week but one of the other supervisors is on vacation. I could still do it, but I don't need to hear about it.
We should all take a day next week and have a mid-day get together in the city somewhere!

...the funny thing is... I actually called in with a Migraine excuse.... and I have now developed a massive headache.
I think my raised-catholic guilt has caused a physical reaction this time... dammat! lol

I actually had a to use a Personal Day today because the hose on my washer decided to burst the other night while as I was work flooding my fucking house. So I spent this lovely day watching my hardwood floors get ripped up and the water damaged walls ripped out. I usually reserve Vacation/Sick days for fucking off. Damn it.

Tell me about it. I covered the shift of another supervisor over 150 times last year without one incident, including several times covering double shifts and even acting completely alone as the only management person in the building and I ended up with a "partial meets" on my review with no mention at all of any of that. Then one day last month I had to take my mom to the doctor so I was a little late. I caught hell for it. If they take one of their loved ones to the doctor I never say anything, I don't even question it. Yet one time in months where I needed to be there for my mom and I have to hear it. Fuck that shit.

so i had a couple of hours to kill between work and school, so i've been online my school's library. i REALLY dont want to go to class tonight. it's only pathology, not like a hands on class i should be there for. I'm so tempted to just go home now, even though it starts in a half hour. please, somebody tell me it's ok!
I can't believe none of you bastards stepped up to the plate and gave Jennitalia the green light to blow off class this evening.
Now she's sitting in a lecture hall bored to tears while the rest of us have already started the July 4th celebration.
Bunch of creeps.

I'm a suave, dashing, debonair, devil-may-care 40 year old who enjoys stimulating conversation, romantic dinners, and girls half my age.

She managed to post this within the time it took me to leave work, go food shopping and head home... so stop yelling you big mean, "I'll Call You In 5" lie - teller!!

And even though I'm the one who started this thread, every time I see it I think it says "I'm playing hockey today."

so yeah, i left school and ran into my friend, who convinced me to stay till break and then leave with her (and half of the class). But it was sorta worth it...got to spend a couple of hours looking at "funny" pathology pictures
