I read a few weeks back on jaybabes blog a joke on why u shld not lie to your boss. I took it for what it was A JOKE. That was until the events of Thursday unfolded.
To begin wit either my bosses found my blog or they really needed an admin asst coz the former one resigned I don’t know but I was transferred to head office. That means I can’t skip Friday work (though I have been coming up wit creative excuses to dodge work on Friday-im almost out so I need ideas)
Any how last Friday was Rhythm unplugged a show where all my people would perform Timaya, P2 etc. I wanted to be appropriately “HIGH” for the occasion which meant I have to start sippin wine from 5.U know if u go 4 these things sane u wont have as much fun as when u are intoxicated and having no inhibitions. Work closes at 5, I would be home by 6.bath get ready i.e. 7.no time to sip i.e. I would go for the show and not be able to scream appropriately. The show was slated 4 7. I put on my thinking cap and decided the only solution was to skip work on Friday. im entitled to 2 Fridays off 4 sch so why not skip work and school. Sounded perfect to me. I can cover up the school thing wit heavy reading. From Monday I told HR I was going to school on Friday. I then sang to all at work including the gatemen that im not comin on Friday. It was a fool proof plan. Had gotten a top ready, 4 bottom well it was btw cocolet and my nu love. My gals and I had planned to go early so we can sit in front.
Thursday came I was edgy could not wait for work to end so I could go and try my clothes again and decide on bottoms. By four I was ready to go and had started harrasin HR on the advantages of closing at four. Now HR himself stays near me kinda so he gives me a ride. Just as he was about to drop me off he casually said “enya so u will miss rhythm unplugged”. I put on my best gosh im missing up on a good thing face and said “yes, u see the disadvantages of school” whilst grinning in my mind. He was now like well he will give me the gist on Monday as he was taking his wife. I almost fainted. I mean u pple know how these shows go I could be shown on the wide screen or worst Dbanj might just ask me on stage wit him no way I could say no to that. Anyway im typing this on Friday nite by 10.00.im sure my gals and idiotic HR are havin fun. Im at home watching friends on a un high mind gosh I wish I was drunk or sumthing.
So my pple don’t ever lie to your boss. These pple have powers beyond u.
