The guy who works immediately below me in my office called in sick this morning... with 'a cold'.

I'm sorry, but that's not even trying! And now I'm stuck with all his work as well as mine :evil:

What's the worst / best excuse you've ever heard/used?
 
The cheekiest excuse i ever heard was "couldn't find my car keys".
And he got away with it!!!
 
One of the girl dropped her key down a drain by the side of the road. we thought it was a wind up..... but it was true.
 
Someone I used to work with called in sick the day after we knew she was going out on a "mad one"

Her reason? He friend's drink had been spiked and she'd spent the whole night sitting in A andE. It wasn't until about 2 months later she just came out with "Oh yeah that...no I made that up"

I hate people who always call in sick :(

OMG I take it no one believed her Urchin!!!!

Yeah it annoys me too, especially if they have loadsa time off and you know there is nothing wrong with them :evil:
 
We believed her at the time!

She sounded so convincing!
 
A bloke I used to work with excuse was he had the same as what so-and-so had who'd been off earlier that week, unfortunately so-and-so was a woman who had a bad AF, lol. I got my Mum to phone up sick for me to tell work I had laryngitis and I'd be off all week, I was really in Gran Canaria :rotfl: , suckers.
 
I worked with a guy who asked for a day off when England were playing in a European Cup match - he couldn't have it cos there were too many already off. We held a sweep that morning to see if he'd ring in sick :rotfl: - he did (got his gf to call in for him with a lame excuse about having the flu) :roll: there was war when he came back. :rotfl:
 
I only ever pulled one sicky when I worked away from home. Every Monday morning for years I'd been the only one in on time on and got all the excuses. I phoned up one week, and just left a message saying I 'couldn't be bothered' - apparantly they all had a good laugh about it and I didn't get a warning :dance:
 
I used to call in sick ALLLLLL the time haha... when i was 18 and worked in london i would tell them the train from kent was not working that day.... but there was another bloke that lived near me that worked there but they never pulled me on it.

I hate work!!!!!! i am sooooo glad i dont have to anymore!! :dance:

xxxxxx

Sorry don't want to get shot for this but the couple of days before I get a cold i'm always ill with it, bad headaches, shakes, shivers feel like cr*p etc not too bad when it comes out though. In his defence tho. he's probably on deaths door being a man an all :rotfl:

i pulled that one once when i was younger..well actually i got my mate to phone my work from the pub toilet and say my drink had been spiked and i was really sick! lmao :rotfl:
it was only mcdonalds..i was 17!

i also told the truth once..my boss knew i was going on a date..i got quite drunk and went back to his i woke up in the morning with my best mate ringing me saying where are you..your not in your bed! i looked out the window and said "erm i can see the millenium wheel.." i was never gonna make it to work on time so i had to phone and tell the truth..luckily she found it funny and let me go home and shower then come in!! (and thats when i worked for the police) :oops: :oops: :oops:
 
The best was when my friends boyfriend had fell from a bridge and we had been in a&e all night thing is it was 100% true, he fell 50 ft and survived with hair line fractures to his back and a dislocated elbow! (he was p'd up)

The worst is when my toilet blocked :rotfl: i said my house had been flooded it was bad but didnt warrent a couple of days off, turned out kai had put an old toothbrush down there :roll:

I work with job-scared teens in a training centre and some of the excuses they come up with not to come in are great, I keep the excuse slips in my diary for a laugh.

Bear in mind, NONE of the following are true....(except#4)

'Jeans wet by bus, gone back home'
'Took dog to the vets'
'Just haven't got the head for it in the mornings'
'Killer hangover' (least it's honest!)
'Chased by gang with bats'
'Sprayed myself in eye with deodorant'

:rotfl: I love my job!
