This is why you are glad you saved up sick and/or vacation time.

This is when you come up with some bull$#!% excuse as to why you need to leave work early.

This is when you hope you have a boss that is as big a fan as you, that you can convince to have a long lunch meeting at a sports bar.

It's why I work the night shift. Makes getting sleep a little tough though.

Yes - we are having a March Madness party and will be able to watch the game from 11:30 - 1:30 with snacks

Yes, by using earbuds I can avoid disturbing other staff. That is until I suddenly scream, "Oh, what's the matter with you?" Then, of course, the hawk is out of the bag and I have to calm down and use my office voice.

The Hawks seem to always play better when I'm not watching, so the fact that I'll be unable to watch the game is probably a good thing.

Glad I got all my topics covered in class so they took my final Tuesday instead of today.

Mary Darst 7 years, 6 months ago

Yes, I get to watch it. I just hope I get to watch them tomorrow night.

I have a big screen in my clubhouse! I can see it from my office chair or I can just go sit on the couch and watch!! This is one big perk that comes with the job.

Of course I am going to be watching it, as I have every Jayhawk game so far. I am anxiously waiting for the brackets to come out. I didn't do that great last year, there are just so many teams to learn about, try as I might, there are always a couple of stats I seem to forget. Rock chalk, Jayhawk, KU!!
