Things To Do This Week.

Come Party With Us.

Recently the supervisor of a water company in Mexico was set to receive a plaque for 20 years of service, only his boss couldn't find him to do so. As it turns out, he hadn't been into the office for the last six years, despite continuing to collect a weekly paycheck that whole time.

We'd like to think if we didn't show up to our jobs, at least one person would notice. At the same time, playing hooky for six years sounds kinda dope, too. And you know we've already got lots of ideas how we would spend all that downtime. Here's a few we'd start with.
