Anybody at work today?

I guess a lot of people got today off cuz it's dead at my job... The phone hasn't rang more than 5 times.

Ugh... I'd rather be home sleeping and watching the storm clouds.

Re: Anybody at work today?

  • I'm at work today!  I actually wanted to come in today (I'm hourly, so no work=no pay) because I am going to S. FL this weekend and want to leave a little early Friday.  I work at a hotel, so we're pretty much business as usual, except my boss isn't here...so it's a nest day for me!!! :)

  • no school today or tomorrow! I would have preferred to go to school, though...

  • Redhead my sister is hourly too...

    Her office closed today and she had the wonderful option of either taking a paid vacation day or not getting paid at all for her "day off".

    There's just something that seems not right about that...

  • I am off from school today...they haven't made a decision yet about tomorrow....
  • I'm here.    sitting through a site visit so my boss gave me his laptop for the morning to keep me entertained.
  • I'm off today...not sure about tomorrow.  I actually wish I was at school.  I'm going to have to treat tomorrow (if we go back) as if it's the first day all over again.

  • Nope....and we totally could be...they should have let us go today and canceled tomorrow. I'm mad though because I'm sitting @ home with the kiddos and my husband's boss is well, grrrrrrrrrr... and he cant come home.

    Yea, I actually do the payroll for two hotels and I was wondering if their was a paycode for Hurricane Day.  :)  No such luck.  I think it's crappy...and it's not that I can't live without one day (although it still sucks), but there are some people that need that day.

  • yeah I have one of those bosses that doesnt think storms or hurricanes are a big deal and that the local weather is useless.  He doesnt care that employees have to drive in storms.

    He was working the morning after Charlie and when Frances hit.

    So, yup I am at work.  If the weather is too bad to drive in Wed. morning (heavy rain) I will take my time getting to work.  He can deal.

  • Our office is closed today, so I'm having a nice relaxing day at home.  My husband had to go into work today, darn it!   Would had been nice to sit at home and watch a couple movies together!   :-)
  • Yeah yesterday when they told us that we weren't going to be in school Tuesday, we thought, "great" a 2nd first day of school....how lovely!
  • Well I work for a media outlet, so we are "open for business"..always.  If we actually went into "crisis mode" we would do things like phone banks and news runner instead of my daily accounting work.

  • Yeo, business as usual here. The absence of traffic was nice, though.

  • I am at home and DH is at work. I still haven't heard if I am going to go in tomorrow or not.

    Storms are hard to predict -- so sometimes it comes a day later and the day they call of work is fine, but then next day is bad . . . it all depends.

    I am hoping that DH can come home early -- I don't want him driving down I-4 tonight.

  • Our office is closed today. I could be laying in bed sleeping BUT our South African client decided to send a proposal request that is due Friday for a NYC program. The proposal coordinator has NO internet at her house - it's gone down - so guess who gets to do it?!

    Blah.

  • I was actually very suprised when my boss suggested I just work from home. My mother in law had to go to work and she said all of their patients have cancelled today. She works for an orthopedic office in Celebration.
  • I get to work day ... pretty sure I will get to work tomorrow too.... great.

    Does she work with Dr. Homan?? 

  • I am also sad that the second day of school was cancelled.  I have an awesome class and was hoping to really get moving today!  I know it's for safety's sake, but we could've been in school today! 

  • I work for Disney and it was also business as usual.  From what I heard the parks were deserted though because everyone figured they would close early and didn't want to waste the ticket.  Made for a busy day for us!!

  • Yes actually she does work for Dr. Homan
  • I had to go to work today, but they closed the office at 2 and sent us home... no word yet on whether we will be paid for the remaining 3 hours of the day. I am dreading going  in tomorrow... I am sure the am commute is REALLY gonna SUCK if it is still raining like this.
