kkeenan 14 #26 October 29, 2010 I did the entire Lost Prairie Boogie on Sick Time, one year. I had to call in sick each morning around 8:00 (Eastern Time), which was 6:00 at LP. Since cell phones weren't working from the DZ, that meant driving a few miles to the lodge by the lake every morning. A pain in the ass, but got me up for the early loads and saved a week of Vacation Time.Kevin K. _____________________________________ Dude, you are so awesome... Can I be on your ash jump ?

Then again, that's where drdive comes in.

pinkfairy 0 #30 November 1, 2010 They always stop asking when I offer to go into details about my throat infection or tummy trouble. But my friend had a great one: called in sick from the dropzone, and his co worker who knows he jumps picks up the telephone. At that moment, one of the turbine engines of the AN-28 starts. It's a quite distinctive sound, a bit more high pitched than a TO, it says "dropzone" and "skydiving" like nothing else. The co worker listens to this for a while and goes "You owe me one!" Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedude325 0 #31 November 1, 2010 We were partying and at 3 am, decided to drive to miami beach. We got there at sunrise, and I called in while sitting on south beach. The guy on the other line couldn't hear me because of the wind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
