My supervisor has ask me to meet her this afternoon, as she has been away all week ill. However, I have gone home for the weekend as I didn't think she'd be in.

I don't know what to do now, I can't just tell her I decided to go home, I feel like I should be at her beck and call, what do you guys think?

I am working at home, so nor completely skiving, but we are in different cities!

Aargh! Help!

Ask if you can have a telephone conversation instead?

calm down.

She can't expect you to be available on such short notice. Just send her an email and ask to shift the meeting to next week.
