Tomorrow will set a record for U.S. employees missing work, according to UKG’s annual Super Bowl Absenteeism Survey. An estimated 26.2 million Americans say they will miss work the day after the big game, surpassing 2025’s record-setting 22.6 million employees and potentially costing upwards of $5.2 billion in lost work and productivity.

I’m working. How about you?

That's interesting. I'm watching the game but I wouldn't imagine missing work over it. I wonder why people would be calling out, especially because it's going to end relatively early.

I’m not a big partier, so I shouldn’t feel too bad tomorrow. But it sounds like I might be one of the few people in the office tomorrow.
