Question Posted Thursday April 6 2006, 3:10 pm

i asked a question a little while ago about if i should go in to work or not, when i have a paper due for school. i wound up calling my boss & saying that i can work friday if i don't have to work saturday, which she was okay with. however when i got off the phone my sister told me (she was being serious) that what i said sounded retarted. she said i was like "i um have an apointment with my mom um i mean i have an apointment and i can only work friday if she can change, i mean if my mom can change the apointment to saturday, so i wouldn't be able to work then." obviously saying i have an apointment with my mom souds reatarted & now i am embaressed. if by any chance they want to know what apointment it was, what do i say? i don't make apointments with my mom. i also feel embaressed that i almost sounded like i was stuttering (& lying, perhaps) when i told her this. what should i do?!?!

it's really none of their business what you have an appointment doing. if they ask you, tell them something like, "my mom's busy and i had to make an appointment to see her. no biggie, but just big enough to have to miss work" it's certainly not a big enough deal to stress over. so don't worry about it. :]

its none of their business, but they probably wont ask anyways. if they do just say something like for personal reasons, or anything like that. you dont have to explain yourself.

It's very unlikely that anyone would question it. Everyone can get nervous when they are talking to their boss on the phone about an appointment because we have it ingrained that they are BOUND to always think you're lying about it!!

At the end of the day, you haven't missed any time from work because you're working the Friday instead and you are doing what's best for your education, which should always come first. So don't worry too much about it and concentrate on doing your paper. Everything will be fine.

I don't think they will ask about it. They are much to relieved to have Friday covered and an extra day to find someone if they need to have someone cover Saturday.

They will simply think you were nervous. :)
