I just got Lumberg'ed at work

Recommended Posts

Um yah ... the boss just called an impromptu meeting to tell the entire engineering team that we're all expected to work this weekend as well as on the Memorial Day holiday Monday and that it'll be great for the company.

Don't forget the cover sheets to your TPS reports...Greeaaat. :D

Sucks for you dude...

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Dude, I work for the casino business - we have no holidays. If I didn't take Christmas Day off for some personal time off, I'd be in the office - playing on dropzone.com (tee hee).

"sorry boss poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine."

Well, I have the phone number of a good overweight hypnotist you could call. Do you want me to set up an appointment for you for tonight? :D

All joking aside, that really sucks, Steve, but if Colorado's forecast looks anything like Michigan's you ain't gonna miss much.

It would be cool if I could be hypnotized into thinking I was at the DZ while I was at work.

Actually our mornings should be very jumpable, but the thundershowers will be blowing in during the afternoons. As long as my home DZ (within a 30 minute drive of where I live and work) gets some loads up early in the mornings, I may be able to squeak one or two jumps in before heading off to the salt mines (late of course). And then as long as the weather is clear, I may be able to get one or two jumps in before the sunsets.

At least that's the plan. ;)

For what it's worth, I don't have to, but I am going to work on Saturday. It's "the right thing to do."

I feel for you Cana...Cani...Canu...Ca-not-gonna-work-there-much-longer;).

Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

That's funny, back in my old public accounting life, we were working on a Saturday and this email started circulating from some other team. They were in an emergency and needed help (urgently) from anybody that was not busy.

The emergency: Some partner was having to add up some numbers and do a LITTLE spreadsheet work on his own.

They seriously wanted some $50K a year person to come in on their day off so this $1M a year person wouldn't have to do 10 minutes of key punching.

Fuckers.
