We were seriously considering just shutting up shop today and putting up a sign saying
Out to Gears
Be back Monday
But apparently not everyone is taking the day off and so I guess it would be rude to ignore our none Gears fans. However if you are a Gears fan then you have no excuse for being at work today.
I find the two best bets for getting off work early are
-
Migraine – Easy to fake and impossible to prove
-
Family problems – They never ask.
Or you could spend the day browsing the Xbox.com site seeing which of your friends are sitting at home playing Gears of War 2.

I might as well be here. I have to wait for my copy to be delivered anyway. But i can see myself developing a case of the runs due to eating something dodgy at lunch.

I did exactly what you didn’t, Lazy: sent everybody home, told the clients we’re off to a “team building” excersize – it wasn’t a complete lie, you see 😀 ?
