Worst Excuses For The Boss

Nope, never - I just used to say I was sick!

Never have heard of anyone using these excuses.

Those excuses are beyond ridiculous Anna lolz I went to work if I was dying lol.

I love that the cat unplugged the alarm clock!

No, I haven't used any of them. I was sick when I phoned in sick and that was very rare. Once a parent brought their kids to school late and said they missed the bus because the bus came on time! I guess that bus driver was usually late. We thought that excuse sounded funny.

Those are weird excuses. I always tried to be very honest if I had to call in for a day off.

I cannot say as though I have ever used any of those excuses, I haven't even ever heard any of them before.

nope, I just stick with a nasty headache, it's true more often than not. these made me giggle.

Those are some weird excuses. I never missed work unless I was bedridden and then I had the doctors note.

I've called in sick a few times but never used any of those excuses. Mostly I just couldn't drag myself out of bed

"I am always late. Everybody just noticed that today" "I am late for 5 hours because i supposed it was Saturday"

No, I don't lie to my boss.

No never. I didn't mind going to work. I would even go in sick but a lot of time had to leave before the day was over. I didn't have a bad work environment or people I didn't like to work with. I had a good time and it was a nice place to be.

No, I haven't. I do think that a tree falling on a car is quite valid, especially after the Hurricanes and winters we experienced up north.

I am sad to say the tree fell on a car happened more than once this year. It was on the news, so every boss could see there were people that actually could end up late to work. Amtrak wasn't running, so that wasn't an option to just take the train. Many roads were under water, so not everyone could work. I used this excuse many years ago and had a photograph to prove couldn't get to work. My boss ended up sending one of my co-workers to pick me up, so both of us worked longer that day and the co-worker took me to work until my car was considered totaled by the insurance company and I bought a new one.

I think in this aspect here we do it better. At least I haven't heard anybody who uses the weird excuses for calling in sick. Perhaps we still pay attention to keep our jobs and therefore we seldom have a day off work. Sometimes even if I am feeling ill, I will still go to work.

I haven't used anyone of those excuses. I doubt if I will as I always do my best to be at work ahead of time. If I will give an excuse, I want it to be so bad, that it will sound good in the ears of my boss.

No...if I don't feel well, I do mention I am not feeling well. lol

Never did i use any of them . It's always between - to attend to a personal matter or not feeling well . Always the truth , because i hate lying , since anyway i am entitled to my leave of absence once in a while.

Years ago, when we didn't get points for calling in sick, I would call in whether I was sick or just wanted the day off. Once we got docked for calling in, I only took off when necessary and told the real reason why. I've heard even more far-fetched reasons than the ones listed above, but don't remember them at this time.
