calling in sick

“Hello, Beth?”

“Nadia! Where the hell are you? The boss is going bonkers!”

“I’m calling in sick, Beth.Tell him that.”

“It’s a little late, don’t you think? You’ve already missed two days. You’ll be lucky you don’t get fired.”

“Let him fire me. I don’t care anymore. The job stinks anyway.”

“What are you talking about? You love this job and you know it. You’d better get your ass back here soon.”

“I need a full week. Three more days, Beth. Please? Cover for me?”

There was silence for a moment, then Beth sighed.

“Okay, Nad. But you owe me. Big.”
