Hijacked DE

[tinylegacies.livejournal.com]

Steph is off work today for her tattoo, so I'm hijacking the DE.

What's the craziest reason you've ever taken a day off work? What would get your pup to take a day off?

For me, I think it was scheduling a day off so I could be home to participate in an RP plot. As for my pups, Zoe doesn't work yet millicanonically and Esme works from home, so it's a moot point.

Kirk's a workaholic. Knox works flexible hours these days, but skipped work to attend the Mets' ticker tape parade in 1986 (which was a sad excuse for a parade, since Gotham has no money, but it was still a parade) and would do that again. Gibbs never officially misses work, but is being a pirate ever truly work?

And Charlie once passed up a chance to get rehired by his former TV station to go to Eastern Europe and find the answer to something interesting but far from earth-shaking. Really. This is canon. (He did get the job back, though.)

Me? While I admit that I took advantage of vacation time to make sure that I retired Barry Allen on an off-day, and set the day aside for that alone, I have never really taken time off for anything odd. Unless you count how many times I have taken time off to go to cons. I think that's totally normal. (Adds that I have only played hooky a handful of times, and only to go on job interviews disguised as doctor's appointments. And I haven't done that in years.)
