Get Paid $1,000 to Play Hooky for a Day

Summary

Could you use some time off? A day to spend doing what you want away from work and responsibility? Of course, you could. Do you want to get paid for it? Of course, you do.

As we take the first few steps into 2023, the team at Shane Co. knows there are some early-year events, like the Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day, you could use a day off from work for. That’s why we’re sponsoring a contest where you could win $1,000 just for playing hooky for a day (that’s $125/hr. for the day if you need some extra convincing).

The day after the Super Bowl, or “Super Sick Monday” as it’s been dubbed, is one of the most called-out days of the year. Unfortunately, most people who call in sick that day probably aren’t getting paid for it. What better way to kick off (pun intended) the new year than getting paid to play some hooky? All you’ll have to do is tell us why you should be selected by filling out our form below and, once you win, take the day off on us!

What We’re Looking For

The ideal candidate for this contest would be someone who needs a day off and could really benefit from playing hooky. Which, honestly, is all of us.

The contest is open to everyone. Those in the workforce, stay-at-home parents, students, it doesn’t matter. If you could benefit from a day of playing hooky, we want to hear from you! While not a requirement to enter, we would prefer to know how you’d spend your day off with your partner. 

Applicants to the contest must be 18 years old or older and a U.S. citizen or permanent resident to be eligible.

To enter the contest, contestants MUST FOLLOW THE LINK BELOW to the entry form, where you’ll be asked why you are the person we should pay to play hooky for a day.

If you’ve been quickly burning through your PTO this year, are already feeling burned out from 2023, or just need to take a day off for yourself, tell us about it!
