That's the way my old office was. With the added game where somebody tells you that you should go home. You smile wistfully & croak out, "Oh no, I can't. I have so much to do..."

As you said - another little stripe for your sleeve.

When I took quite a bit of time off to care for my husband (diagnosed with advanced colon cancer) I was marked down on my annual evaluation because I wasn't always available. Don't miss that job one bit.
