I had my schedule pretty much cleared for tomorrow (and NSD) and got a call from a state gov't agency on Monday that coincidentally gives us 6 figures in funding, saying that they are coming to visit Wednesday for a survey and get us to take them out to lunch.
Should I:
A. Tell them they can't come because its NSD and I got to see if we get Von Bell.
B. Call in sick with a case of the flu and let my inept assistant handle it.
C. Continually leave the room to check 247 and try to suppress my expressions of excitement from my office.
Your input is appreciated! GBO

Wow. This is a very intense situation MississipVol.
I would do C. Just don't piss them off by leaving too much. Sign up for text alerts and then when it comes to 10:20 or so and you get a message go take it, and yell really loud in enjoyment.
