It starts out as a peeve, but it has a happy ending.

It is raining here. I remind you that here is Los Angeles. Rain pounds the Southland. I couldn't get within a mile of the freeway because traffic was backed up so badly. I was looking at 1.5-2 hours to drive the 15 miles to work. That shit ain't worth it. I turned around and came back home. I made sure to call my boss from the car so that she could hear the rain and the windshield wipers and know I wasn't faking. Working from home, working from home, I am working from home.
