I'll never forget the time my boss call me to have me come in to cover a shift that night while I was chilling on a mountain looking over to Mt Adams while eating my lunch

I was surprised my phone even rang given the location, he was surprised when I told him I was 9 hours from my apartment

I sent him a picture to prove where I was

He was not amused but he did tell me to take a bunch of pictures since I was out there

All in all it was a good day

Did that make the trip better or worse??

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 11 months ago

Honestly better

Because me being unable to come in meant my boss has to cover that shift and he had already proven himself to be terrible at it

My boss and I had a hate hate relationship at that point

I had my manager try to call me in while I was on the other side of the country. He tried to tell me I hadn't informed him of my vacation, so I sent him the picture and emails where I had listed my vacation in the scheduler. Then he told me I was lying, so I sent him a selfie of me in front of Fort Yellowstone.
