        @Taylor-Martin my preferred text is something like "I feel lousy today and am taking the day off"

        It's accurate while also being incredibly vague.

          @jminer I didn't actually say I was sick, I just said I was taking the day... Colleague wasn't too happy about that... if I had told a little white lie that may've gone a bit better...

          dont lie and dont say any more than you actually have to. speak in facts. "im taking the day, ill be back tomorrow."

          thats it. thats all you owe them. dont feel bad about it.

            @Roadkilled I don’t think that’s the title I’d go with, as I don’t own any carbed cars (yet)…

            Maybe “it was the best of timing belts, it was the worst of timing belts”

            But in seriousness, writing a novel would be cool… all I have to do is sit down and write it lol

            Some journalist told me about this site. Now I own three cars.

              .....At this point, I'll take a remote gig again. I didn't know how to work one before, but since I have more things to do, and I remember how much I enjoy working outside, I really have no excuse
              ....So, anyone looking for a people-oriented employee with a Bachelor's in creative writing and a background in car parts?

              There's a few people you should meet I think. I hope you do so if you make it to Detroit.

                  To be, or not to be. That is the question. Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of a carbureted car, or to take up fuel injection against a sea of troubles.

                        Have you considered writing novels? "It was the best of carburetors and it was the worst of carburetors."

                        What, a dirty DCOE?

                        Craigslist will push me, and I'll say no; read my lips: no new projects.

                          @Taylor-Martin would have to learn carburetors, and now you want him to learn Italian too?
