This is the way. My ass isn't on the schedule with appropriate notice? Sorry boss didn't hear the phone ring.

I've done that before but one time my boss insisted on sending his son to come pick me up and bring me into the office.

"I think perhaps my coherence on the phone has given you the impression that I would probably be able to make teeth right now, but I don't really feel like holding a bard parker knife or putting my face that close to the flame right now... My breath might be flammable"

"You don't need to carve wax, We need someone to reprogram the ovens, We got a new investment we want to try"

I'm not sure why having a piss drunk technician program porcelain ovens at 4:00 p.m. on a Saturday seemed like it was urgent, but I got a free lunch out of it and 4 hours so I won't complain.

My boss also bought me an nice bottle of knob Creek later in the week to thank me for coming in on a weekend.
