[I MAN]

... I'm looking for a good excuse to take a couple days off, any suggestions??

[gram-man]

There's a flu going around. I keep seeing players on The Mets going down from it.

[Occifer Boland]

Stomach flu and pink eye usually work for me

[Spidergawd]

Uncontrollable, projectile diarrhea.

[MeOmYo]

Ebola virus

[gram-man]

OOOO....you could say horrible flesh eating bacteria! But then you'd have to say you got better really really quick...so I don't know how that would work...


...hmmmmm

stomach flu is going around my work. i don't necessarily believe that everyone who has called out has it, but not like I can really ask for proof either.

[Terrapin Station]

Diarrhea shit pants always works for me.

[Rionach aka Spec K]

threw your back out...works every time

[Terrapin Station]

[Deadshow Dan]

Yeah, I could use a hot lil Miss too

[Rionach aka Spec K]

why?

[Terrapin Station]

Just seems like a really unbelievable excuse in my opinion.

Do you use that 6 times a year? or just once in a blue moon?

[PieDoh]

I had a concretion in my eyelid...just cost me to get it remedied too...

[TEO]

Your shift as TEO's cabana boy.

?
so many people have back problems, it's a perfectly believable excuse
I've used it for a Friday/Monday excuse to extend a weekend, yes
and I actually do have back problems so the people I worked with when I used that excuse used to see me with back pain often.

Don't need excuses where I work now. "I won't be coming in today as I'm not feeling well" is all I need to say - or email...don't have to even call in.

[Heady]

Pink eye worked for me today.. though I do think I have it, as well as a ruptured ear drum. Just bought myself a 4 day weekend yo!!

[Jabadoodle]

Bob: "Peter, it looks like you've been missing a lot of work lately."
Peter: "I wouldn't say I've been missing it Bob."

Fail.


Especially when they see you out running around.

[Java Time]

[gregoir]

yeah I've never made up an excuse and called out. I think I've missed 5 days of work for being sick since I graduated college.

[August West]

call in well

tell them you have been sick ever since you started working there
