I'm playing hooky today.

Fuck it.

I’m Ferris Bueller.

I’m going to make chili, watch the Olympics, drink beer and nap. To hell with society!

I wanna say, “Good for you! You go!”

But it’d be a lot easier if I knew what you blew off to play hooky? Just another day at the office, ho hum? Leaving a coworker to do twice the work? Cause someone else to get hauled into work to cover for you? Will it piss off the boss? Or barely be noticed?

I want to rejoice with you, truly. But I gotta at least know you didn’t cause someone’s surgery to be rescheduled!:smiley:

Na. No one will suffer.

I just watched this and laughed my ass off.

I’m with you! I’m exhausted so I took the day off.

Nobody’s even in today, the people who are in are wrapped up in an audit I have nothing to do with, and it doesn’t matter which days I work this week because I have nothing due.

The plan is to read books, critique fiction and work on my own book, and maybe cook something. And probably sleep a lot.

That’s old school. Is that Rick Moranis?

Yes. Rick Moranis on SCTV. Brilliant.

Today here was a beautiful day, and I wished I had played hookey. It was perfect for golf.

The one truly shitty thing about owning your own business is that there’s no such thing as playing hooky. :frowning:

You also can’t throw a hissy fit, scream “fuck this place”, and walk out. Without looking like a fool.
