Good for you Chavez. I'm screwed on this one...used a day for that windswell last tuesday thinking this wasn't gonna pan out.
Ditto SS...only day I can't take off this week. Hitting it after work and hoping for Thurs. leftovers...hopefully, people on here will post pics as it makes its way up north. Would be interested in seeing something over waist high in different locals...
Dude I'm usually like F it, but I was basically told not to disappear this week so(I'm cool w/ my direct boss, she knows the deal) I'm taking heed to the warning...but yes, hopefully we could live vicariously through pics, and I might be able to sneak up there weds afternoon, if I'm lucky.
SSI, GA is sitting at 3-4ft right now. Rain coming in and the wind is blowing 5-10 NE. Hopefully a better outlook for tomorrow...
For you bros that are stuck with life commitments keeping you from charging this week, there will be more this summah for you. We are coming up on peak cane season and we are actually getting some activity. Life could be worse. We've got swells occurring on weekends rather than weekdays for the last year so you 9-5 guys have done ok. Hoping as many peeps possible score this week and those who don't will get kinda stoked by seeing and talking about it here. Look how many cats were stoked I got a Coil board yesterday. Our culture is cool and so is the male species. A chick gets a Gucci handbag or an engagement ring and all her girls hate on her. One of us scored and the braddahs are happy for him. See you 9-5ers on the next tropical system swell. It'll be soon enough, as long as we keep fueling dat hype train!
I lost over 3 weeks worth of vacation time last year when the company decided (in December) that we could no longer roll unused time over to the next year like we had always done. Not making that mistake again this year. I'll be getting wet on Wednesday...
Still raining here. Waiting for a window to go take this late lunch. Meetings over. Waiting, waiting, waiting.
Even with the rain, there are dozens of swimmers in the water and I see about a half dozens surfers out. Think its about time to say f it and go.
I have one word for you guys.......diarrhea Nobody questions someone who is willing to reveal they have diarrhea. Never call out through the year if your actually sick, just save it all for potential swells. And when push comes to shove, reveal you have bad diahhrea. Your boss will think, wow, that's too much info, but what can you do. PS. Don't forget sunblock. returning to work with a sunburn can wreak havoc on the diahhrea excuse. I feel it coming on for Wed. Diahrrea cha cha cha!
Bro. So on point. The dude with the schitts is like a leper - no one wants to go near it. Plus, everyone's been there, except for dope wahines who don't even have an excretory system. This has got me out of class, out of speeding tickets, bad dates, etc. Now...if your boss is a particular hardazz and will say no even to this, prime it with the following: 1) Spill some Coca-Cola on the rear end of tan or off-white (it's pre-Labor Day, you're good) khakis. 2) Put some water on your forehead, under your eyes and dampen your hair. 3) Get the ants in your pants dance going while you walk back and forth in front of your boss's open office door (showing your backside), then weakly smile to him/her as you ask to speak with them for a minute. 4) Tell them of your dysentery. 5) Whistle on your way to the parking lot. You've earned a free pass to surf cane swell by trading any future ability to date anyone in your office...or get a handshake.
No water time for me yet, but stoked things are getting active early. It's a nice pattern that has set up, hopefully we can get the next one to stall a bit south of Bermuda for a few days. Seeing photos and hearing reports and stories of the waves makes me kinda froth for the future, so let em rip.
You can only use this one so much, it wouldn't surprise me if my superiors at work think I have major IBS now. I went the Chavez route this time, said I've got a family member having surgery weds and they need me for a safe ride home. Much less anticlimactic than Chavez's short story. I can picture him doing the evil laugh like Mr Burns from the simpsons haha
Classic....what kinda dates you been on mang? I can see the look in her eyes as you do the facial rumble, then a semi cramping motion..."I'll be right back babe". LMAO
Drawing special attention to this critical advice if you're going the diahhrea route, this should be highlighted.
True... That is why it's important to pretend you have IBS from day 1... Keep a pill bottle with vitamins in your desk and pop them daily in front of your boss. Act like you are hurting every once in a while, but keep working. This way when you say you have to leave your boss will think it must be severe.
already 3 sessions deep as of today at CB. Dawn session was an ultra-rainy yawn, tide was waay too low so after a few hours I walked home to make some pancakes. went to check it an hour later and the incoming tide brought the sets up to chest high. so much fun. gonna be out of control tomorrow.
