What do you tell your boss on a powder day?

[EWolfe]

Discuss.

[AlpineK]

How long have you been working at your current employment? If you've got a long reliable track record and you're company isn't facing a deadline then it's a lot easier.

 

I'd fire you so you have lots of time to ski.

[EWolfe]

Independent.

 

 

I am just curious. I still have to make excuses.

 

Usually another contract.

[Ponzini]

"I have a family emergency/situation that I need to take care of today" Just act depressed and chances are that nobody will question you.

Me "Dude, did you see the snow report?"

[Winter]

"You're Honor, I'd like an extension in the briefing schedule."

[JackY]

 

It's best if they don't know you're a skier, then maybe they won't make the connection and you can use any excuse you like. It's to late for me. I get just a little to

happy at work when it starts to snow.

Just cut your fucking arm off with your new Hitachi miter saw (if it's up to the task). You don't need your arm for snowboarding.
