Talking How does being a Dieselhead impact your Job Ever call in when u were doing a repair?

Ever call in absent on a really nice Spring or Fall day when things were slow at work, someone was rubbing you the wrong way, the weather was beautiful in order to finish a repair, replace a cylinder head, rebuild your brakes or just do a few minor electrical fixits?

I am taking vacation tomorrow to Fix my Rear and my Brakes....
Being a Diesel Head does impact my job, bit it also has Great Benefits because I'm an engineer and it helps me to think out of the Box. At least one or two inspirations relating to work came to me while under a Car
I wish I could say I am a Company man to the Core and that without a doubt, with absolute honesty and certainty, that I have never ever even considered an iota of taking a Day off to work on my Engine or transmission when my Supervisor was pi___ me off, or the weather was just too nice, or I was burned out at work because of chickenstuff getting to me.
..But that's not true, I use quite a bit of my vacation days to work on Cars
Yes I often daydream about great engine jobs at work, look out at the window at a passing W123 300D with a great paint job, or even think about any W123's and I never record this Time on my tImesheet.
