Lads, Im looking for an excuse to get out of the lab early, any ideas? Im going to be new and it might as well be a new job (except not getting paid:( ) but I dont get any time off for holidays or anything like that.
Should I:
a) Come clean and ask for a half day.
b) Arrange a trip for the 'dentist'
c) Pull a sickie
d)?????
I need help! :( Has anyone had any similar experiences?
if your not getting paid just say you have a pre arranged family functionQuote:

Have you started in the lab yet?
If not started yet say you have pre-arrange meeting/function
/whatever on the day....also say you can survive with just the half day off...will make it seem you doing them a favour...?
Yeah, I agree with Pete.
Say you need the day off for a pre-arranged function, then if they 'hum and hah' do them a great favour by telling them you will swing things around and try and get in for a few hours in the morning.
City match and brownie points!!
and a few pints b4 we get on the busQuote:

Hope there won't be trouble up there. Last night after they scored against Shels, according to a fan who's a friend of mine, they made 'gestures' of a bigoted nature.
Ah sure we all break into "All you need is Love" from the beatles if they start any sectarian sing songs.
Not that we'll be heard
I heard of bigoted words and chants, but what is a bigoted gesture?:confused:Quote:

I would think the bus will be escorted to the ground, we'll be expected to stay there, be loaded up afterwards and sent on out merry way with all three points.
I can confirm that - 2 police bikes blocked off the crossroad at collins avenue and 2 police jeeps escorted the buses down grace park rd into Tolka park away from the home fans.There was a lot of additional security and looked like guards were well on top.Fans had to buy tickets away from the ground to avoid congestion at the turnstiles -Quote:

What can I say the function is? A Christening or something? I cant exactly say that Im rushing off to a christening with a City top on. I'll need to leave at 2:45, what can I go to that will last longer than 2:30 hours? I think that I need something better than the dentest. :(
How about:
Dentest appointment at 3:20 near St James's where I live,
I'll need 30 min to get there on time so I'll have to be gone by 2:50 at the very very latest (Im only 2 min away from the Kilkenny shop).
Wont be out of the dentest by 4 when you consider delays and all that.
Couldnt possibly be back before 4:30.
Is it worth coming in for one hour? So I'll have to take the afternoon off
Unfortunatly, I dont think that they will have a problem in saying that I can just stay in the lab til 8 to make up for lost time! :(
Try asking for the full halfday, have the "i could come in til 2.45..." in reserve if needed?
I hope they're reading this site :p :DQuote:
