Really, you only need the flu for about 4 hours. You're the nurse. Is there a 4 hour flu?

I'm ditching work right now. :D

There's nobody to sell a car to and I was tired of picking limbs off the lot.

My friend and I are the best at ditching. But its a little easier in sales due the the unprofessional attitudes. :p

If you have little shame (I have none) diarreah is #1 on the list. They can't say no. Just tell them your calling from the bathroom its so bad. Easy.

Food poisoning sounds too made up.

You can also say that your plumbing is messed up and you need to stay home to save your floors. And that the plumber that showed up seems shady, and you don't want to leave him in your house alone. That works well too.

I like to use my imagination when calling in. :D

We had a few tornadoes hit so I had a menu of choices to choose from today. But then I fiqured I'd just have my boss cover me while I slip out the back.

This is too funny. I really do think I have food poisoning right now. Like plumbing is definitely messed up. That's for sure.

I'm definitely not playing hooky though. I'm missing the Jimmy Buffett concert tonight. If I'm not better by Thursday I don't know what I'm going to do.

Funny, that has the identical content to most of your posts.

Wow. Oddly worded and full of bitterness.

Hope your team wins it all someday soon, for your sake. :D

Hope you're feeling better Joe Mama! You missed a GREAT night! Jimmy was great, as expected! The Parrotheads were wild and crazy, also nothing new there!

I feel much better actually. I don't think it was food poisoning. I think it was a flu. I'm glad the show was good. It's been awhile since I've missed one.

I did have killer seats for U2 Thursday night though. That was a blast.

OFF TOPIC: I didn't even hear about their concert until well after it was sold out - in other words about an hour after they opened tickets for sale. :wave:
