"I told work I had to go out of town for a week for a family member’s (my grandmother’s cousin in Texas) funeral. Completely fictitious. … in reality I just wanted time off to hang out at the luxury home my friend was house sitting, hot tub, full bar, etc.
The day my “vacation” started, I got a call that my grandmother’s cousin passed away and they were going out of town for the funeral and expected me to go with them."
