It also helps if you have some newspaper handy for some added static. Drunk bosses fall for that one every time.
If your boss is drunk by lunch and invites himself on vacation with you to your buddy’s cabin and insists on going no matter what you say, here is some advice. Tell him he can go with you and that you will call him later with the address, but the cell phone service is spotty at best up there. When you call your drunk boss with the address, as promised, start the call as you normally would but just as you start giving the address… s art o use you rb est cutti gou voi. Then hang up. Problem solved. He will be too drunk to realize, this is the oldest trick in the book that was written after cell phones were invented.
Upon return to work, you can be all like “Oh man!! You would have had a great time!!” and “Dude, I wish you could have made it! WHAT?!! I totally thought you caught the address before my phone cut out. Next time drunk boss! Next time for sure! Wait what’s that? Oh, I would rub lotion on your back but Brian said he really came to like it while I was on vacation so…”

THIS IS TOTALLY RELEVANT TO MY LIFE RIGHT NOW. Except my boss is also my mom (nepotism much?), and she calls me to ask if she can join my solitary knitting party even though she knows I knit alone. I’m going to try your tactics.

Posted by kelsgonebush | April 19, 2012, 6:17 amI really doubt anyone would fall for that, but I guess it’s worth a try 🙂
