tripperfunsterWell, it is looking like I will NOT be able to attend Infinitus. :(
We have some epic employee fail at work right now, and are down two staff members, and a third has booked her vacation at the same time I am supposed to be away. To her credit, she booked it before I informed them about my plans, and at the time, we had two more people that could have filled in. But not now.
And her plans revolve around a music fest, so it's not like she can really change them.
I sent an email to the Infinitus people to let them know I would not be able to do the Draw Your Own Harry workshop. I really don't want to screw them over. I hope they haven't printed out the books already.
As for my roomies: Dove, I am so sorry. I know you guys were counting on my $$$, and I know you're short of money yourself right now. I've already paid for my "Night of 1000 Wizards" Perhaps I can get that refunded and send it to you guys?
The only thing that might turn this around is if I can bribe vacation!employee to miss her fest. I'm not sure how married she is to being there, but perhaps if I offer her some extra cash to take her vacation at a different time, I might still be able to go.
I also have a call in to a former employee, to see if they'd like to pick up a week's work. I won't hear from him until after the 7th.
Basically, I have resigned myself to not going, and if things *do* work out, then it will be an extra special yay. Sometimes owning your own business and/or being the boss SUCKS.
