2: if not, what would You tell your boss?


Me: Ive got that bug going around..

I work 3rd shift 7:00pm - 7:00am, so I would still be able to play ar atleast download it.  I am not real big into calling in to work, I have a family to feed.

ummm.. yeah i would still go to work. In my opionion it would be completly irresponsible to stay home and proof that you have taken this game WAY to seriously. But thats just my opionion..I could be wrong. :aok

The little voice in my head goes:

"Let's see if an extra hour today will finish the project early"

"Marcus is slammed, lemme see if I can help him with his work load"

"I'm flippin' swamped and already leaving late and the VP of legal dumps 10 hours of work on me that they want done for their 9am court date tomorrow morning."

"I have some spare time today so <poof, dream's over, I get up and get ready for work>"

/and I like it this way
//yell at me, cuss me out, do anything but bore me

Me: "Hey Boss, i am having vision problems today, so i wont be into work today."
Boss: "Vison problems?"
Me: "Yes, i just cant see coming into work today, kthxbye." 

 :)

 Seriously though, no, i wouldnt be calling off for a game. Thats just beyond silly.

I'd still go to work as the thing downloads through my soda-straw dial-up connection.

If you're going to call in to work just to play cartoon airplanes, you've got serious problems.
