It's a slightly perplexing situation. Maybe even a bit of insult to injury. But the facts are this...I have a BAD cold. Why is it that this never happened when I had a job to call in sick to? But here I am, three days into my "retirement" and I just plain don't feel well! I'm laying in the bed, my lovely bride is quietly breezing back and forth preparing to go to work when my phone rings. "Dad, so ya wanna talk to me now? I just got your text message from yesterday." Ugh. Timing is everythin, isn't it?! So after a brief conversation with the boy, I hung up. I turned to my lovely bride and asked if she could please walk down the hall and tell my home office "I won't be in today. I have a BAD cold." Now being the ever mindful wife she sauntered off down the hallway to the other end of the house. Upon returning she tells me, "No sweetie, your staff says they need you in today. They say they're lost without you..."
My office staff!

Unfortunately, that is what happens when you are the boss. I hope you feel better soon. Your staff does not look very productive with you out sick.

Next time skip the announcement, just blow the coop. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
