freeflir29 0 #1 December 17, 2003 So I went in to work to use the great free gym we have there. After working out for about 1 1/2 hours I went in and filled out my leave paper work for the Mardi Gras boogie. I went by the Ops office to double check my days off just to be sure. Ok....yep....I'm off the 22-23 so I start my leave on the 24th. OK....my next days off are the 29-30. Sweet....I only have to take 5 days off to spend a whole 8 days at the boogie! Nice.......Then the ops guy drops a bomb on me. "Well....it seems you have a training day on Friday the 27th. They won't like it much if you try to take leave then." So.....I'm a little bit pissed.....I said screw it.....the worst they can do is say NO. I put in for it....but lets see what the bosses say. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I swear there is a govt conspiracy to keep me away from skydiving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #2 December 17, 2003 Well, Clay, you know, if you could only go for 5 days or so, that wouldn't be so terrible. I mean, I don't think there are too many sheep around there. But seriously, I'm just going for both weekends (I live w/in driving distance) and am maybe taking one extra day off, since I have Fridays off anyway.

freeflir29 0 #4 December 17, 2003 Quote if you could only go for 5 days or so, that wouldn't be so terrible. Well....the problem is this. If I have to make the training day (FRIDAY 27th) I could only stay from Late Sunday to Thursday. Which means I would miss all the good stuff. I can't come before the 22nd cause I'll be working on things I can't take off for. They are DAMN lucky they are paying me so much!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #7 December 18, 2003 Quote So you wont miss out on much. Yeah.....but I'm sure it's not the same as staying over the weekend. Plus I would have to fly home and then go to work the next day.....THAT would suck!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was not online when you posted. You are too cute, Bettina! Look at the other Mardi Gras thread to understand why I wrote that. He started it... I was merely quoting him.
