Take off your tie

I am at work and I am drunk. I did not get drunk before coming to work, I don't do that (yet). I got very (apparently very) drunk yesterday and I woke up drunk today. You should be allowed to call in drunk to work, without any stigma. I mean, for Christ's sakes, I'm in customer service! I'm speaking to customers and I'm just sloshed. But if I were to go to my supervisor and tell her "I'm sorry, I'm too drunk to work," she'd probably fire me on the spot. What the hell am I supposed to do? I'm sick and tired of this workplace discrimination against the sobriety- challenged.

I feel your pain. This happens more than I'd like to admit. I agree, calling in drunk should be allowed and applauded!

I hate disgusting hippies.

Also, the place I worked at in Lawrence used to let us call in drunk. I only did it once becasue of all the shame. Same with masturbation.

Wear a tie? Oh my lord, no, that was just a joke. I'm not even wearing dress pants. I'm wearing jeans, as we speak.
And Nick, you've only masturbated once?

I just did the same thing over at Underhill's place. We need discipline.

I used to work in a call center and once had a worker call in sick, because he was gay. "I have a case of the gay today." (he was gay, by the way) Another time, a kid called in with "vertigo." But, I did have employees call in drunk...just need to learn how to lie, Dashy! Don't you hate it when people call you dashy? ;-)
