r1crusher Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Most of the time working from home has it's perks. But the sucky part is no matter the weather outside I have work to do. Unless there's not power or something special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 it's actually my first day BACK at work this week.I effed my shoulder/back so badly over hte weekend that it hurt to breath Monday morning. I honestly couldn't have made it to work, or sat there without crying out in pain...Then I got a fever that night and stayed home yesterday, downing Tylenol cold & sinus and fighting cold sweats. It was a blast.I basically HAD to come in today to avoid losing my job. I get sick time, but I also work on (partial) commission, and it's my ass if shit doesn't get done. Clients only give a shit for so long when you tell them you're sick and can't make it into the office.Thankfully SCHOOL is closed today, so I can stay late at work to catch up without missing class.as a kick in the junk though, our boss sent out a "policy revision" basically taking away 5 vacation days a year from everyone who has been with the company more than 5 years (that would be me). Thanks for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 i went in to work, but apparently UPS is closed today and our hub didnt get the memo...all the main hubs are closed, so we did what little work we had, and they sent us home after 2 hours....glad i got up at 3am and drove 15 miles for two whole hours of work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 yeaaa i stayed at home to work.

I could never do that to people...glad i got up at 3am and drove 15 miles for two whole hours of work That would suck.Called in sick yesterday and today. What a coincidence the weather is sucky. Yeah, because you are sick, but now they probably think you're lying because of the weather.
