I have a daughter who has used the excuse of my funeral on 3 different occasions-with 3 different employers- to be able to come home for family events. When I ask her how she got the time off, she responds with a grin, "I killed you off again". I tell her it isn't funny and someday a boss will want an obiturary notice.

Never had an excuse that was not genuine. MY last job is was in for 29 years I started with 2 weeks for German measles but they paid me anyway. Had two weeks off in 1990 to have what was left of my fibia removed from my stump and then maybe a couple of odd days for cold.. And that was about it

the best excuss is closest to the truth, thats the funny thing you know Im myself in management and also have worked under people and really you dont need to make up an excuss. If you are really just feeling tired and lazy and thats why you dont want to go just call your boss and tell him look I really dont feel well lately and Im tired and run down and I really could use a day off to recharge my batteries, tell them you preform better when your rested and that it would be mutually beneficial.

Over the summer I had a Monday off saying I had sunstroke from the weekend. Everyone at work had been complaining the week before at how the hot weather was making them feel a bit ill so they all believed me.

It was a freezing day and there was a lot of Ice so I didn't want to go anywhere even though we were open, So I told my boss my garage door was frozen shut!!!
I also used one time that I had lice and needed to be off for a few days. I was desperate, I had a skiing trip to attend!!

Best exuse? My finger got jammed in the gap between the x and the c in my portable typewriter and it broke off when I pulled it out.

The cool thing about my job, is that I don't have to come up with any excuses. I just tell them I'm not coming in. They wont ever ask why.
