Ok, so it's Monday morning, that could be a rant in and of itself.
I get up, do my morning ritual;dress, hair, coffee, post, walk the dog and head to work. I go out to my truck, unlock the door, open it...WEEOOO WEEOOO WEEOOO, BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP BWEEP, WOOOO WOOO WOOO
Here's the thing...I don't set the alarm on my car because, well, the alarm thingy broke off my keychain and I never bothered to get a new one. The alarm set itself somehow and now I can't turn the feckin thing off! I have to call a tow company, have them tow it to the nearest dealer and find out just how much they're gonna charge me to fix it.
I just started a new job and I've had to call in once already because of the flu. Now I have to take more time off for this. I NEED this job, I LIKE this job, I can't afford to lose this job. To quote a phrase from a dear friend, "JESUS MONKEY FUCK!".
Thanks for listening.
*crawls into the fetal position and cries*

If you're a good employee and everything else is going okay, I'm betting your boss will understand your plight. Basically, stuff happens, that's life. If they are looking for the "perfect" employee who never has any little problems, they'll be looking a long time. If you want to let your employer know that it really is a problem with your truck and not just a made-up excuse to take some time off, you might approach him/her and address this issue, and also let the boss know how sorry you are about this interfering with work time. Sincerity can go a long way toward getting your boss on your side. Sorry for your sucky Monday morning, Trinity.

Thanks Beryl *hugs* They understand. It's just frustrating and scary. I talked with her and explained the situation and my concerns/worry. She assured me I was not in any danger of losing my job. Probably because she'd have to pick up the slack again and my team really likes me. I appreciate the kind words.

Before I give you a spanking Dev, I must ask if your diapers are clean first.

*walks into dissie's arms and cuddles, sighing*
I thought I'd be productive since I'm home. I was going to do a load of laundry but nooooooo. The key to the laundry room is on my keychain, in my truck, at the dealership. Ugh.

Hugs Trinity - I hate those alarm systems and if I could disable the audible part of mine I would in a NY minute! I also have one of those panic buttons on my electronic door opener and I too broke off the little thingie that goes in the hole to stop the alarm noise. I am always accidentally pushing the button which sets the alarm off in the most inconvenient places - such as in front of the airport while I was dropping my husband off. By the time I got done being inverviewed by multiple airport security police, hubby had already landed at his destination.
When I bought the car I asked for the alarm to be disabled (who pays attention to the things anyway), but the insurance company sort of insisted on it in order to insure the car.
Oh well - Have a good day - hang out in SL and you'll feel better.
Rose
