I never lost one, but back in the day if
Inspired by the Gamblers Annonymous Q&A;
If I needed a score I would not be shy about putting the job second!
Getting those daytime scores during the week can be difficult if your on the job, the scorephone use to be the way to go...
Sometimes though if I had big action on a game I would do what I had to watch it...I use to work for FedEx way back and I would be out on my route, I would pull into the closest mall I could find and go right to the dept store TV section... During Bowl Season watching almost a whole football game on the job (while I was suppose to be delivering pkgs) , the worst part is the store employees lol, they give you these strange looks like "what the hell is this guy doing"? This was after XMas and the route was slow but I still should have been working....That particular time when I got back at the station my manager asked me where I was all day? I played it off not knowing what exactly he was getting at, he then said "the dispatcher was trying to contact you"....so I can answer a big YES, I did put my gambling ahead of my job....
Lesson learned, work for yourself so you can take off during these crucial times
