Even the birds took a vacation.
Big Daddy will never retire. I know this because he cannot take a vacation.
When I used to take a vacation from work I never answered my phone unless I was sitting at the Touche Bar in New Orleans or on a balcony in Northern Michigan. And I only did that to piss people off. I never even checked my email when I was working until I went to work. Granted some days I started at 5 AM, but even with the Blackberry I was never tempted to peek unless it blew up. And even then sometimes I chose to let it wait. Of course my boss had my home phone number but those calls were rare, not rare enough, but rare.
This week Big Daddy has checked his email every morning, was asked to do a tool tryout Friday, found a replacement for Friday after he saw my reaction, and reported he is going to Mexico next Tuesday. Oh yes, he went to the office this morning to drop off the part for the trial on Friday for Mr. Replacement.
And it is only Wednesday morning.
I am now up to 52 weeks of vacation per year.
ReplyDeleteGood job, but knowing you-you will find a way to get more.
DeleteA normal year is 52 weeks and 1 day, with Leapys being 52 & 2.
DeleteCate would never dream of going anywhere without her iPhone, iPad and BlackBerry. She breaks out into a rash if she does not have Internet access.
ReplyDeleteI will say once I went to New Orleans with no phone and no equipment and was on edge the entire time.
