Points for creative thinking, but I would prefer not to get fired and have to seek redress through the courts.

I don’t know if you were addressing the specific case mentioned, but if someone has a softball game they want to go to, and they say they have a medical procedure to take care of, that could easily be grounds for termination.

Best answer I can think of is to unionize and negotiate a CA that includes shift trade rights. Short term, I don’t think there’s much you can do if the company wants to be a dick.

Any that you enjoy the first time.

You’re suddenly a superstar athlete making tens of millions of dollars. I think we have to disqualify you from the game on those grounds.

I could see it online, yeah. If you use a friendly tone in person it wouldn’t be a problem.

“Thank you friend” is impolite? Maybe it’s informal, but I think that’s a great solution to the problem. I can’t imagine anyone having a problem with that except maybe an aggro asshole.

Don’t ruin it for me, fine, but at least maybe point me to a link?

Having experienced both, I think it’s more accurate to say having bad relationships.

“If they did nothing wrong, they shouldn’t have anything to hide,” sounds EXACTLY what one of the cops you’re concerned about might say.

That’s exactly what it was. But the sheer odds of them settling on my house the same day as I worked a game a fair distance away at a park that happened to be in their path to their new home? Pretty fucking high.

No more untucking! I don’t want to worry about showing off my gut every time I raise my arms.
