I had the misfortune to phone my boss last week & report sick for work. He asked me how sick I was?, and I told him that I had Shagged my mother & sister the previous night and asked him if that was a sick enough excuse?

What is the best excuse you've given your boss when phoning on sick?

I once had an employee call and tell me their room mate's cat got leukemia.

I can't compete with most of the other contributors in this respect but as a former teacher, my school, like all others, had many excuses from children.

In a way, some pupils were 'in training' for adult life when they rang the school secretary to give excuses for not coming in. (A bit like phoning your boss?)

A good example was of a girl who began her telephone excuse with, "This is my mom speaking ..."

However, there are many thousands, perhaps millions, of children's excuses for non-attendance. The questioner should refer to many compilations available and will find any number of examples which are far more sophisticated, witty and credible than those given by some crass adults.

You gotta stick with the plain old been up all night with diarrohea and throwing up and running back and forth between the toilet and my *** is on fire from all the ........... Or if you're a chick you can use the period excuse (which really does happen) - at one of my workplaces a guy said he had period problems once?? Left us wondering if he was really a he and not a she especially when I saw him years later dressed in drag at the local shopping centre - my friend was saying check out that freak and the next second he came running over to me giving me the great big hug and kiss and telling me how much he loved my lipstick colour.. Gotta stick with the realistic excuses though!!

True story:

One day, I just felt completely out of sorts. I wasn't sick, or tired, or drank too much or anything else. It was just one of those days where I kept goofing up even routine things.

So I called work and told them I won't be in, I am feeling very stupid today. My boss replied "Huh?" I told him that for some reason, I just can't seem to get anything done right, and it's likely I would cause more harm than good if I came in.

So I just stayed home.

got cancer in my ear

my mum just died...it's the mum on sims

i told the bloke who came to this country on a floating door and doesnt know any english that im having today off.

im going to do a bank heist

i quit

ive been arested... on gta

and the best is:
your boss calls and you answer it, not knowing its your boss because the numbers privat, when you answer your boss says "are you planning on coming in today?" you reply in that annoying voice secretarys use, "Sorry, I can not come to this telephone right now please leave a message after the beep and I will get back to you," then get something that goes beep and put it to the mouth peice, then listen to your boss leaving a message

This was true:
I was in the shower with my dog, giving her a bath, and I was sitting down in the tub. She started to slip and her front pawnails scratched my penis that was on the floor of the tub. OUCH! Bled like mad, but actually healed relatively fast.
