"Yeah, I'm going to need you to come in..."
Do you want to talk about a buzz killer? Try getting a text message from your company saying be at work by 11 AM after a night of heavy drinking and not going to sleep until close to 3 AM because you are in a Tropical Storm warning and sleeping on your friend's couch. Yep. That kills a buzz and just irritates the FUCK out of you. Mind you last year I left the same house around 11 PM after the rain from Katrina stopped, I was asked where are you going? "I am going to have to go into work tomorrow, I fucking know it"
I should have known better when we were able to drive around and go to a few different bars the night of the storm that I was going to have to go into work. At least I did not have to be in until 11AM. I was also lucky enough to be driving back to my house and be behind the President of the company at 9AM on the interstate. Sometimes he is just endears himself to everyone. I think one person in one company we deal with was at work. No other companies that we deal with were open. We sat in the office for 6 hours because he wanted to prove a point. I do not know what point he wanted to prove other then that he can make you miserable if he decides. Oh and the field personnel did not have to come into work. Gosh, construction workers not working when there is a tropical storm churning over your head. It's fucking rocket science sometimes.
