LOL.. That's funny.
When I shot my elk a couple tears ago.I shot it on a Saturday morn off the Hope Princeton Highway. Took it to the butchers in Princeton.
Went back to Kamloops my home town.I phoned work the next night and told them I was going to Abbotsford to get the thing mounted. And I wouldn't be back till Tuesday. Nobody calls in sick at my work, being sick is a sign of weakness. Man up, tell them you have an wounded animal to find and you won't be back till it's found.
Hell, maybe the whole place will shut down and they will all be out there looking for ya. But yeah don't call in sick for something like this.
Your not gonna lose your job over that. That's a promise.But you will lose your job getting caught in a lie.
