Can I bail from the Christmas party this late?

Christmas party is on Thursday and is an all day event, an hour away.

I have nothing to wear. I’m broke. I’m 15 weeks pregnant and haven’t told work and not really that close to colleagues.

I feel shit and have done last week and DD is also unwell and keeping us up all night.

I’d rather just work but I didn’t go last year as I was heavily pregnant.

I don’t know what to do...

Ring in sick.

don't say a word about not wanting to go but just phone in on the morning with a case of The Withering Shits, or something , be very sad you are going to miss it, ask keenly about it when you see everyone

Stay at home, keep warm and relax!

Show nothing but enthusiasm for it today and tomorrow
On Wednesday afternoon start feeling a bit unwell and don’t eat anything but “hopefully you will be ok by morning “ as you are “really looking forward” to the event
Thursday morning call in sick ( been throwing up all night)

The Withering Shits Xmas Grin

And Caring is definately NOT Sharing !

Don't go, however make sure if you have promised to pay a deposit or anything you make good so no one else out of pocket!

Make sure you mention about DD being sick so you can say you must have caught it from her if you're calling in sickWink
