footy sickies

17 Jun 2004

During the last world cup I decided to let my staff have the time off for the England matches and today Ive told everyone to go home at so they can be there for kickoff.
Because of this everyone turned up for work.. I wondered if anyone is throwing a footie sicky today or if anyone else is getting an early finish confused

Ian_Mids gets to finish at rather then 5 pm as well today. Only thing is, the little shit is going to the pub to watch the game and leaving me with the kids sad

Dawn :silly:

I told my boss I was working from home today (the wonders of broad band and citrix biggrin

)
my staff are also working / drinking from home also. We do have one or two non sporty people who are covering the office in case of big cheese invasion.
If this wasn't the case, then yep - one big sickie in the office due to Carlsberg flu !

I'll tell you what easy, you can borrow my children and study them. I've been doing it long enough thanks lol

I did try to convince Ian to let me go to the pub with the guys he works with but for some reason he said not on my life. I have no idea why. I would have behaved, honest :giggle:
Dawn :silly:

NOT BLOODY LIKELY. :P
I've got a gobby six-year-old of my own, there's no way I'm having someone elses as well. evil

Besides, just because you've finished for 6 weeks, doesn't mean that we all have rolleyes

:P

BTW brandy or rum in warm milk works a treat wink

School's not out for another month!!!
And this year the summer hols are 7 weeks long - a slip of nature!
STILL no goals - why can't these blokes do their ruddy job??? Good job they haven't got to earn a living in the real world. cool
