Jeff just called me. He’s got the Cubs tickets from his work for today. You know. Opening Day.
This necessitated the following IM conversation:
Matt: I know the rule is to request days off in advance, but I just came down with “opening day cough”
Matt’s Boss: lol
Matt: (translation – a ticket for today’s game just dropped in my lap)
Matt’s Boss: that fine
Matt’s Boss: you lucky I am a cubs fan buddy
Matt: that’s why you’re the best boss ever
Matt: :)
Gonna need to bundle up though. And I guess this means that I start South Beach tomorrow instead of today.
