Need advice from Panther fans.

Hmmmmm... I lived in Asheville for 3 years and never missed a game and always drove in the morning. It's only a 2-hour drive down the mountain to Hickory, take 321 down to Gastonia and across to Charlotte on 85.

 

That being said, a new job trumps everything. It's one thing to call out and tell 'em you're going to the game after you've earned some tenure and respect, it creates a pretty crappy impression to do it after a very short time on the job.

 

Your reliability and integrity are at stake, bro. Your family will always be there- your job may not, and that's what pays the bills and allows you the financial freedom to go to the games.

Do both. Sleep when you're dead

[csx]

Both, no problem

Yeah if you call in because you need your 8 hours before driving tomorrow morning you should be fired. This is not even close to a schedule conflict.

Guys thanks for all the help.  This was actually useful for me.  Called and talked to the boss....I'm gonna go in and work a half day and  get off by 7 that way I can make it down to Charlotte tonight.   Go Panthers!

Explosive Diarrhea. Nothing like getting out Scot free with embarrassment. ;)

I can operate without 8 hours, but just not more then one day in a row.  I haven't seen my folks in Charlotte for about a year, so ideally I would like to get up there tonight so I can actually hang out with them, because during the game that's what I'm going to be focused on.   The only reason I'd call out is because I wasn't scheduled, there is a full staff and they're not short handed without me.  I volunteered to come in today to speed up assimilation.  If they were short handed, I wouldn't be going to the game.....period.  I take pride in my work ethic.

The only thing I miss that poo for is death and child birth.

Get off at 11:30....head home for 5-6 hrs of sleep....then drive in. You would be here by 8am.

Don't see the issue....I prob won't get but 5 hrs of sleep tonight.

THIS.

Work. Go to bed. Get up early. Go to game.

[MrBubba]

[JJT]

I'd call and say, "I'm sorry, but some has come up that is more important, and that I can no longer commit to working tomorrow. "

They don't nees the details.

I'm sure I'm late for this, but that my simple advice.
