Blackstarluver Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 Ok, how many of you are planning to be out on opener? Better yet, How many of you have to work 1.5 shifts O.T. on opener? Anyone have any ideas how to put one over on the boss? Any suggestions would be appreciated!JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUMBLEWEED Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 Working on the opener? They should pay you triple time and a half!! What to do???I am lucky,for I have an amazing grandmother.I grew up fishing at her cabin up on the Whitefish chain.She knows my love of fishing,and my willingness to get out on the waterat all costs.Sadly, she passed on years ago.In fact she has "died" many times since,ifyou catch my drift!! Some might think thiskind of behavoir is kinda strange,but I know"gram" would understand entirely.In fact Iknow she would just smile and shake her head.Some kids never grow out of things and fishing for me is one of these things.

Car problems.4. Strep throat5. 24 hour flu6. sick children7. household emergency (failed sump pump, etc.)What are some other favorites???------------------John K., a.k.a. wastewaterguruPrior Lake, Minnesota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pherris Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 I would quit. More time to fish all year!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskminn Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 I would go ahead and work on opener.....any attempt at pulling one over on the boss will be immediately identified as a ruse.Instead, save your "story" for the middle of the week after opener when there will be fewer people on the water anyway.

Surface Tension Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Take your boss with you. If that isnt an option then I use blackmail. You know hidden camera nice blonde and a compramizeing (sp) position. If your really good you can get an extra kicker day for memorial weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
