Don't have to ask if you own the business

Switch out your shiner, for some Blood & Honey and this is how my draft week looks like.

I'm taking the fam to cowboys stadium for the draft party.

I was trying to get some people together to go, but they are just not fun, as I told them.
One guy said he wasn't going to pay the price for the beer. I told him then just don't drink. so he says, any bars doing a draft party, I said why do you need to drink at one...LOL...then just have it here. At the place we were at.....so he can biatch about prices there...LOL...

Yep, sure don't, sure is nice isn't it...or retired...unless I decide to take a few short term positions.
Sold my business a few years back...still have a vested interest in it. But everything on my terms.

I'm throwing a draft party at my house on Thursday night and I am taking off work Friday.

 

[casmith07]

Anyone else share this pain?....What you guys doing different and what's on the watch party food and beverage list?

I'm 48 and still a little kid when this day comes...it's a sickness.

I'm self-employed right now, lol, so I'm just going to work at home and answer emails. I'll turn off the business line early

 

[CrownCowboy]

As usual, I'll have to make sure my phone is fully charged so I can halfway know what's going on while I'm at work.

You boys better be on point in the live draft results thread.

 

[DCowboyz]

Well, when I get off work I'll be able to watch the start of the draft. No need to ask for a day off.

 

[Fmart322]

I totally respect your decision to take off but I usually work nights during the draft (since it went to prime time). I'd never take off for it, the money is to good.

And? The first two days of the draft are exciting. Not just for the Cowboys, but I like seeing where these prospects go because I like a lot of them. It's fun to sit around discussing football with my family.

why take the time off, it is at night

 

[rpntex]

I'm probably a bit older than most of you guys (58), but I still get all fired up about it. This year, however, I'm taking my wife to the coast for the weekend. I get just as much excitement out of listening to the draft on the radio as I would watching it on the tube. We'll be on the road Thursday night, so I'll be going back and forth between The Cowboys' App and Sirius Radio while on the road, then I'll not be without my headphones whether I'm on the beach or in the condo.

You and me both! I'll be on a flight to Boston for a wedding.

I love Boston (especially Fenway - huge baseball "nut" here) - but wouldn't want to live there.

 

[mattjames2010]

why take the time off, it is at night

....because not everyone works morning/day shifts?

 

[CowboyJ70]

Off from Wed-Sun. And better yet, the wife is on a cruise with family. 3 days of draft craziness with no interruptions. Lol.

 

[Questfor6]

I'll work Thursday and Friday because I'll get out of work by talking draft with my boss. He's a Browns fan who's never wavered, somehow...

 

[MWH1967]

....because not everyone works morning/day shifts?

yeah true...i was scheduled to work 2-10 that day. my shifts change....i work 7-4's,9-6's and 2-10's. and i drive 45 mins to work. I would have not gotten home until almost 11:00 EST

 

[cowboyschmps3]

Recently started working in OKC after planning to watch it with friends back at home lol. Get out at 5. Planning on taking a shower as soon as I get out then put my Tony Romo jersey on and go to BWW.

 

[plasticman]

Each year I get two PTO that I'm allowed to designate as a religious holiday.

Each year I choose the first two days of the NFL draft.

Ist't the 1st amendment wonderful?
