Sure you can! Just induce vomiting and throw up in front of your supervisor.....works every time.
Or start acting like you have the flu then start touching everybody while sniffling and watch as the supervisor
orders you to go home.
Or just say that you have a dentist's appointment. Or hell, just call in sick for gawd's sake!
Unfortunately, in my case, I'm not doing any of the above.
Because I JUST CANT STANNNNNNNNNNND the thought of looking at this major event through a freakin "live blog" of some overworked tech blogger typing away very bad paraphrases of what Steve Jobs is saying and watching pics updated every few minutes.
I WANT TO SEE A LIVE VIDEO STREAM OF THE EVENT!!
*sigh* I guess the only thing I can do really is not watch any websites until after work and watch a pre-recorded video of the event from the spoiler-free link.
I actually NEED to go to work so I'll be able to keep my mind busy until the video is available online.
