Today, I unexpectedly ran into my boss. Last week, I'd met with him every day, putting together a last-minute presentation of my research for him to deliver at conference overseas. It turns out that his passport had expired. FML

There's always a video call, but that is rather unfortunate. So sorry OP. I do hope it gets figured out!

That's unfortunate, but who doesn't check to make sure their passport is valid before an important trip?

I imagine he'll just renew it and go?

Renewing your passport can take up to six weeks. If they met everyday the week before, his boss is probably missing a meeting of some sort.

unless you pay lots of money for expedited processing. but I agree, last minute means its probably still too late.

Pretty ridiculous. Aren't US passports valid for a decade?

So he didn't even tell you that he couldn't make it overseas?

How do you not check to see if your passport is still good before traveling overseas?

Eh, it's his problem. You get paid either way.
