Good morning was all I said.  He didn't say a word. You would think he'd be in a good mood, just coming back from vacation.  Not a short one either.  He took three weeks. I don't get three weeks for the entire year, but he gets six weeks total.  Must be nice.  My vacation is spent fixing the house, then the car.  If I'm lucky I go out to eat once and then go practice some hits on the golf simulator.  I'm not even playing on the courses now.  It takes too much time really.  It's not a matter of money for that.  I can play on the public courses.  The greens fees aren't too bad there.  So he comes in and walks into his office and closes the door, and for the first day that's all we see of him.  No IM's, no emails, no interoffice, no nothing.  His admin didn't know what the problem was.  She just smiles that smile she always smiles.  Like, I'm here for him, and you all don't matter.  Well, I guess she is, but still.  Next week is when the BIG PROJECT is due.  So he's going to have to come out of hiding sooner or later.   Later would be okay.
