The new "hobbit" policy

Yet another new policy has been implemented at work. From now on, if anyone has not shown up by 10:00, they will be asked to just go home, and be forced to use a vacation day. I can't wait to see how this plays out, for two reasons. One, the hobbit WILL show up after 10:00 at some point this week. Two, my boss, who made this decision, is a big pussy, and I can't see him actually telling the hobbit to beat feet. We have a little bet going at work on what will actually happen. My bet is that the hobbit will be late sometime this week, and will get off with just a warning. I have $10 on each part of that, so I'm pretty sure I will make $20 before the week is over.
