omg my husband had to deal with this PFC allllllllll the time and he constantly had bullshit excuses for being late!
one morning it was because his cat unplugged his alarm clock. when my husband asked why he didn't have batteries in it to keep it on, the guy said that his cat had taken the batteries out, too. LMAO
oh, and then there was the deer. God save the deer LOL. the guy called in another morning and said he wouldn't be able to make it on time (mind you this was the damn army!) because he had hit a deer and it damaged his car horribly. well the next day the dumbass drives THE car to work.... it was spotless, he even took it to the car wash!!!! hahaha
he finally got an article 15, but omg his stories were PRICELESS!

This is not mine, mind you, but one I heard at work. There was a guy who had been arrested over the weekend for drunk driving. When he called from jail he ever so calmly explained to our Supervisor that his cats had gotten internal worms and the Veterinarian had told him to stay home to take care of them as their recovery was in doubt and they needed constant care for two-three days. While the guy was just about wrapping up the call in the background could be heard: "Will you stop talking on the phone and come over here? The desk Sergeant needs another copy of your fingerprints!"

A colleague I worked with would regularly use his uncles and father as the excuse for being late and missing days altogether. His problem was that his memory for his lies was not so great. To my knowledge his father died at four times and he must have so many uncles the whole of Uganda must have been related to him.

Sorry I'm late. I had to smuggle these laptops across the Afghan border, and then my yaks eat my passport, and then they were ill and kept needing a poo, and then the submarine sprung a leak and the border-guard ladies kept whipping me and kicking my balls, and then my plane was hijacked, so I had to take charge but the plane was out of fuel so I had to parachute out and ... - this is when they usually reply, ok Kai go back to your desk now.

I was once late for a lecture at university because I forgot to drop my daughter off at school. I was half way there before I remembered she was still in the car and had to go back with her. My lecturer thought that was incredibly funny. He never let me forget it.

Mine was that i got arrested under the terroist act because they thought i was "suspicious"
So... i got released and when i got into work no one would believe me until i showed the caution card they gave me, so i ended up having wanted posters with me on them all over the office!!
Btw im 6' 5" and as white as you can get!
