Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I only wish. If they fired me, I could laugh my way to the unemployment office.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
we're gonna have a disaster recovery guy here for three weeks, at the end of which we're going to have a 48 hour disaster recovery drill.
Three weeks from now sounds like the perfect time for a vacation. "Let me know how that whole drill thing works out, folks. I'll bring pictures back from Bermuda."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

See, I don't know when our disastrous guy is going to show up. I already had plans to be in California at the end of the month.
It'd probably look suspicious if I called in sick tomorrow. Bah.
