Judge calls in sick to play Modern Warfare 2
Just because district judges look intimidating, doesn’t mean they don’t have a lighter side to them. Underneath the toga and the hammer lies a simple guy with simple pleasures. This can be said about an unnamed UK district judge who called in sick so he can stay home to play Modern Warfare 2.
Just because district judges look intimidating, doesn’t mean they don’t have a lighter side to them. Underneath the toga and the hammer lies a simple guy with simple pleasures. This can be said about an unnamed UK district judge who called in sick so he can stay home to play Modern Warfare 2.
The judge, 48 years of age and married with two kids, waited in line outside a retailer for the midnight release of the game “like Charlie waiting outside the chocolate factory.” This gamer went straight home and went on a night-breaking marathon, calling in sick the following day. This judge also spends “hundreds of pounds a year” on new games.
The unnamed judge was one among the many featured on Times Online through the “Meet the secret gamers” article. The post talked about the gamers behind the professionals, gamers who maintain successful careers, and sheds some positive light on the gamer’s archetype.
That said, any judges in the house skipping work today?
