I’m getting a lot done while the boss of my company is away from the office too.
The thing is I am the boss! Oh, the joys of running a small company from nearly 5000 miles and six time zones away! I get the whole morning off to get things done without underlings asking for things to do or explanations on how to do it.

Taking Bank Holidays Off!!!!
On the client site on Monday.
No permies will be around, no phones, no 'how do I wipe my arse please, can you write that down for me' questions, no managers.
I'll get all the work for the week done on Monday then fart around 'being helpful' for the rest of the week, make the permie manager think I am superman - useful around now as the renewal sales pitch is due very soon.

I'm staying in this weekend, like all bank holidays, then going to France in a few weeks when the prices have dropped by half and the swarms of munting chavs have settled down to their Jeremy Kyle and Trisha shows.
