How not to call in sick for work

Warpy · Jun 1, 2005, 02:42 PM

Thought I'd share this with you all, this is from a Australian forum i visit called OCAU (Overclockers Australia), it was posted by a an admin after a heavy night, rather funny!

I went to my university's local bar/club to watch the first State of Origin game last Wednesday night... as we all know, Qld won, and everyone went nuts. I ended up buying drinks for people and having drinks bought for me.

Time blurred...

... but apparently the last few firing synapses felt it was important to leave a voicemail for my supervisor and let him know I'd be in late.

He retrieved this from the voicemail system.

For those who know me and my drinking habits - ie, most of the admins at gatherings have seen me drunk, and I've rung/SMS'd Agg or Manaz when I"m blind, just to say hello - know this to be unfortunately normal behaviour.

This already got sent around at work, and Agg figured you guys might get a laugh. Enjoy.
