Most of my Fab one-to-one socials — coffee, libations or luncheons — are during work/office hours; disappearing for the afternoon or absconding from work. The flexibility of my job allows this.

If it's a romantic dalliance 😈 then I sometimes take a ½ day off or even a full day. I have no qualms about doing this. 💘

No my employer is super strict about sick days off. More than 4 a year and you get put on a 3 month plan. Fuckers.

I've pre booked days off and had spur of the minute sickies to go and meet someone or just have a chill day for myself at somewhere like Bristol Gardens or if the weather is good, eurekas.

I'm self employed so as long as the job gets done it doesnt really effect anyone else but me

Pulled a sickie? No. Shifted meetings/booked annual leave to spend time with people? Of course.

It's more than worth it.

No, not being at work is more hassle than being there as I have to send work in anyway. So if I was pulling a sickie it wouldn't be for fab

I’ve not taken a sick day for a fab meet, those are always planned in advance and if I can’t get the day, use AL.

I have pulled sickies for partners and to stay in bed having sex all day though

"Or have you ever taken a day off work ( mysterious 24hr bug ) for the opportunity to meet someone from fab?

If you wouldn’t, why not? And if you did, how did it go?

Asking for a friend of course

Damn right - I’m gonna slide off now and get some sex [sets mouse jiggler for 4 hours…]

Not a sickie, no, but I have booked days off to meet up. If I book a long weekend it's always to spend time with a FWB.

Mind you, I booked a day off so I could spend it wanking once. Doesn't take much for me to book time off.
