New Excuses For Calling In Sick For Work

Recommended Posts

- "I was sprayed by a skunk."

- "I tripped over my dog and was knocked unconscious."

- "My bus broke down and was held up by robbers."

- "I was arrested as a result of mistaken identity."

- "I forgot to come back to work after lunch."

- "I couldn't find my shoes."

- "I hurt myself bowling."

- "I was spit on by a venomous snake."

- "I totaled my wife's jeep in a collision with a cow."

- "A hitman was looking for me."

- "My curlers burned my hair and I had to go to the hairdresser."

- "I eloped."

- "My cat unplugged my alarm clock."

- "I had to be there for my husband's grand jury trial."

- "I had to ship my grandmother's bones to India." (note: she had passed away 20 years ago)

So what's your excuse?

I think that instead of calling in sick, people should call in well.

"Yes, Mr. Bossperson, this is Walt. I'm not going to be able to make it to work today because I feel way too good to be spending my time in such a miserable shithole. Not to worry, though. I should be feeling shitty enough to be in tomorrow."

I dunno, rl, it would take a certain kind of person to really pull that off. I'm not sure I could do it.

Hey, it shows honesty. Isn't that what jobs are always asking for? ;)



Yeah, but I'm not sure they really mean it. After all, if everyone was honest at work, it could get pretty abrasive.

Like in meetings.

"So what do you think, Walt"

"I think you're mentally ill and retarded. Beyond that, I think your idea is the stupidest thing I've heard in years. Oh, and I forgot to mention, I think that tie looks really gay."

Yeah, I see your point. But if you got fired, at least you will have probably left with some dignity and a clean heart and conscious. ;)

I'm not too sure--I really don't like attacking or embarrassing people, but I plead totally guilty to thinking things like that at times.

For some reason, I was in a really sarcastic mood a couple of nights ago. I felt really pleasant, but while I was in a grocery store the most mean-spirited, sarcastic thoughts were flashing through my mind.

Like when I walked past an old guy who had a huge frown on his face. I immediately thought, "Gee, who stepped on your nuts today, Smiley?"

Later on, when I saw someone else, I thought, "Sorry--you're just not going to make it into the top 10 million finalists for genius of the year."

I have no clue why I was thinking crap like that, but it did start to seem kind of funny after a while. Not so much the smartass thoughts I was thinking, but the fact that I was thinking them.

Some other smartass remarks:

When I was a kid, my brother and I were walking down a street with my father. As we were passing an open manhole with some guys down in there working, my father paused, looked down in the hole and asked, "Catching anything?" (I know which side of the family my smartass attitude comes from!)

Another time, I a friend and I were walking down a side street in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. There was a little boy taking a crap on a newspaper in the middle of the street. My friend turned to me and smugly said, "At least he's paper trained!"

OH HELL NO!!! My kids came to visit on Saturday. I gave 4 away to the DZ on Sunday. (Scorpions...not kids. Although.....>:()

Hmmm...there's a strange phenomena. Kids arrive...scorpions leave. If I'd have known THAT was all it would have taken, I'd have stolen someone's kids a long time ago to do battle with them!

GOD, I HATE THOSE LITTLE FUCKERS!!!!

But I do hear there's a restaurant named Luby's that is serving some scrumptious food instead! ;)

what the hell did you do that for?



'Cause the DZO's wife said she wanted them. She took the other one who got into the fight with the spiders (obviously, we know who won [B]THAT[/B] fight) home.

It has turned into a learning project for their kids. One of her son's even wrote some great project about them. :)

i'd hate to find one on the ride to altitude...:S



OMG...I couldn't even picture the hysteria THAT would cause. But imagine opening the door and flicking one of the little bastards out....and then being the person on the ground that it lands on after a 14,000 foot fall. B|

w/ their relatively light, somewhat flattish (is that even a word?) bodies (high drag), i could totally see 'em surviving the fall... damn that would suck... getting beaned w/ a scorpion that was in free fall... of all the dumb luck...

eve worse would be to have one secretly crawl up your rig or jumpsuit, stow away as you jump, then after you open, have it crawl out on you... ICK! FUCKING ICK!!!!

People on the ground would be all, "look at Boinky! She's doing some crazy dance shit under canopy! Is she on crack?"

"Naw, just playin w/ her pet scorpions again... crazy woman!"

I called in last year with the best excuse ever. I said i was having quickie sex with my boyfriend before i had to come into work and the condom fell off so i had to go to the ER to get it removed. My boss said to just come in afterwards that it shouldn't take too long. Thats when i said "umm...it's stuck in my ass and i doubt i'll feel well enough to work after getting it removed from there."

Yup....."tears of mirth." Haven't you ever laughed so hard you had tears rolling down your face? I try to do it at least once a week. Keeps me young and happy! :)

Why yes...yes I do!!! :)
I'm very proud of my record (knocking on wood now). I've been in Texas for 70 days and the score is:

Nina- 48+
Scorpions- 0

I have tons of things to be thankful for. I'm a very happy, appreciative, loving life sort of girl!

Thanks for the good wishes. I hope you have a great day too. B|
