With excitement mounting at the Quicken Loans National PGA TOUR this week in Prince William County, here at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club, you’re probably itching to get out there on the course!
Especially with international golfing celebrities, fun giveaways, and beautiful summer weather, it’s time to find a reason to get out of your office and on your way to the tournament.
We’re here to help, by giving you some ideas on excuses to give your boss while you’re at the Quicken Loans National golf tournament.
“Won’t be in today! I’ll be on that refresher ‘course’ you suggested.”
“A little ‘birdie’ told me that I have jury duty today.”
“I’m feeling a little ‘green’ and need to see a “PRO.”
“My ‘Vardon Grip’ returned and I need to see an expert about it. No more keyboard work for a few days.”
“Boss, I need the day off, my old buddies ‘Gilligan’ and ‘Mulligan’ are in town, and I would really like to see the action.
“My car got into a ‘Grand Slam’ on the way to work, and I need to see a mechanic.”
“I misplaced my ‘Niblick’, and need to find it quickly.”
“My TV went ‘lights-out’ and I’m stuck at home waiting for the cable guy.”
“Boss, my ‘yips’ returned and I need to see an expert about it.”
“I made a ‘bogey’ on my taxes, and now I’m being audited by the IRS.”
Some of these excuses may work better than others, but do what you can to slip away from the office and head out to one of the biggest golf tournaments Prince William County has ever seen!
