Genie Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I decided not to attempt the commute into work. Luckily (or not) I have a laptop and a secure ID so I can log in to everything from home. I think my boss is a bit arsey with me but then he lives 10 miles away and drives a £60k Discovery HSE. Just dialled in to the first meeting of the day in my dressing gown with a cup of tea and slice of toast on the go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leviramsey Posted January 21, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2013 I sent my boss a text late last night to confirm that we are open today and he assured me that we are and that we should make an effort to get in . Well we are all in apart from one person and yes you've guessed it , my boss has decided not to turn up saying that he can't get out of his road ! He was probably watching the AFC Championship Game.

hogso Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) Not going in to work! No buses, I don't drive, and I don't want to walk, the paths are treacherous ! PUH! Edited January 21, 2013 by hogso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted January 21, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2013 Well, I got in. I think I need to send 3 emails and make a call and then I'm kinda twiddling my thumbs. I might do some database tidying. My boss is working from home, as expected. Today its going to be a long one. At least the roads should be better for the trip home today.

Hypothesis: amount of work done will be inversely proportional to today's increase in count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 He was probably watching the AFC Championship Game. I was only going to watch the first quarter but ended up watching the whole thing plus post game twaddle . I had 2 hours kip last night and still made it in to work early. My years in the army have conditioned me I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did most of today's work last night, I call it optimising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Has to be China, or the reference wont work. Still snowing in Birmingham, or at least it was half an hour ago. Not in Nuneaton though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 What do you get if you cross a retard dog and a frozen pond???? you get a very wet and cold Leemond. thats rite folks on saturday my dog in her infinite wisdom thought it would be a good laugh if she went for a walk on the ice on our pond....**** idiot she went straight through, luckily I was up the garden at the time so I waited to see where she came back up and she came up under the ice, there was **** all else for me to do except jump in after her I went straight through the ice dragged her to the side and my dad pulled her out then he had to pull me out because even though I was only in there for about 15 seconds I could barely **** move the pond is 5 1/2 ft deep I had to jump in the shower for about 20 minutes trying to warm myself up afterwards, the dog was fine though as I say she is a **** idiot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Nah I was only in there for 10/15 seconds and me dad was up there as well, I was more concerned about the dog to be honest especially when she came up underneath the ice so she would have been ****, as it happens she was probably in there for less time than me. Makes you understand though when people say that just a minute in icy water can kill you because it literally paralyses you almost instantly **** horrible, next time I'll just throw a snorkel in for the dog instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
