history: My coworker constantly calls in. The past 2 days he had called in and we made a friendly bet that he wouldnt be in the next day.  He actually ended up coming in today.
current: My coworker constantly calls in.  The last couple weeks he had only come in on Fridays.  We made a friendly bet last night if he would come in today and I was pretty shocked when he actually was here on a Wednesday.
next: That is crazy! How is he still employed?
