Wake Up and Call In Sick Because it’s Time for March Madness

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year is finally here. March Madness officially tips-off at 12:15 this afternoon on CBS. Statistics show that more people call in sick today and tomorrow than any other day of the year.* It’s also been proven that the U.S. economy loses approximately $500 million annually while workers slack off to stream the games and discuss their bracket.**

For those like me who still have yet to complete their bracket, there are just over three hours to go. You’ll have to wait a little longer to watch the Cats. Try not to let anxiety set in during the 12-hour wait.
