I'll never forget hearing "They called off today," for the first time.

I said wtf is "calling off?"

It's only gotten worse because that was in 2002.

At my old job, calling IN sick meant you were actually ill. Calling OUT was when you were burning a sick day to do personal shite. Our supervisors allowed it if you didn't abuse it. We worked shift work so sometimes you had shite during the day that needed to get done and they didn't want you showing up on no sleep and being a piece of shite.

At least they used H1-H3 to number them instead of I. I drove on all 3 one afternoon in a rental car.

After “getting on track” became “getting untracked”.
