You could say that you had a family emergency. Sound a little sad when you tell them. It's a good excuse and you won't get asked many questions. If you say something like "My mother was taken into hospital early this morning. It's nothing too serious, but it has shaken us all up, I think I might need about [insert number of days here] days to care for her while she recovers. It was a horrific shock for us all", you should be fine. Draw out the saddness and sound tearful.

Your Grandma died in the early hours of the morning and you were too upset for work. You're not sure when the funeral is but will it be OK to take the day off for the funeral? He will then think about if you can have time off for the funeral - rather than the fact you had time off today. He will probably say - let me know when it is and we will see.

Try the truth, then know that is a sign to quit drinking so much. That came down to be my last straw. I am an alcoholic. I am still working because my boss knows I learned a lesson.

Don't lie. Be like I wasn't in a position to come to work, Personal reasons. Then direct them to the future where you will focus on not having such situations occur again. I dispise it when people can't tell the truth, and they think they're good. They're not good. They just know how to hide. how to lie.

The 9:15 doesn't run from York to Newcastle any more.
If you don't want to do something then the excuse doesn't matter, so anything will do.

I like Mathiew's idea.
Say you were wrongfully arrested because you were with an arab who was carrying a bag on the bus.
Say that it was annoying, but at least the police are trying to protect us.

Someone else was sick (relative etc).
Remember, keep lies simple and bold!
One big lie is harder to find out than a dozen small ones.
