Say you have the stomach flu. Nobody argues with that, and sometimes you don't even have to look very ill when you have the stomach flu.
It's more the diahrrea and nobody wants to hear nothing about that. Also, when you go back to work, act a little sick and keep rushing to the toilet. :P

Migraine is a good one. A bad Migraine can last up to 3 days.
Don't say flu - if you had proper full blown flu it would last three weeks.
Bad back isn't a good excuse either these days, since Doctors recommend that, as far as possible, you keep going as you normally would.

Tummy bug is NOT a good excuse as it's too obvious that you're lying. Say something like you've got a bit of a bad back and you need to rest.

Putting your back out is a good one.
Or food poisoning. A bad bum isn't something bosses want to know about.
The best one I ever did was ringing early, coughing and spluttering, hoarse voice, saying I had caught a viral infection. Nobody wants you to come in and infect them, so they are ready to keep you out of the place.
Just make sure you look sick when you do return to work. : )

I used to say i think it was something my mom cooked me cos they all knew mymom was a bad cook !! lol. Basically get up and ring them early and tell them you have been up all night and you cant even stand up! Better still get your mom to ring in for you!!! Good old moms!!! Good luck xx

Your nose will grow longer and blisters will appear on your tongue but just continue your illness for an extra day or week.
Get well soon

Tell them you have some personal business that must be attended to, then run a short errand or someting quick like that.
Then you at least wont be completely lying.
