Faking it

I know this is going to sound horriable, but when I was younger and didn't want to go to work, I would kill off a family member. I must have used my grandmother 3 0r 4 times, until one day they remembered & said didn't she die 2 times already .... Hmmmmmmmmm, cought! .... Young, dumb & not even smart enough to remember I used that excuse already. I'm happy to say, my grandmother is alive and well to this day:-) Thank God.

The worst fake excuse I've ever used was "I have to buy a few things for my mom, she'll kill me if I don't buy those things for her as soon as possible." It was so vague! The worst TRUE excuse I've ever used was (it was true, remember), "Due to an excessive dosage of caffeine (at 5+ cups of coffee a day), I didn't sleep for five days and as a result, collapsed and could not mentally function well enough to attend school." The teacher stared at me for awhile.

My worse excuse to leave work several years ago was that I was out of Pepsi and the pop machine that they furnished there only carried coke products and I will not drink them....my supervisor just laughed and let me go...I have always had a very strong work ethic and she could tell that I just needed to go for the rest of the day.....it was only about 2 hours before my shift was ending anyway! LOL

Probably saying that my sister broke her leg and that she needed me to take her to the hospital. Im even surprised that I used my sister that way, its just that I was caught off guard when I was asked by my boss. Normally I just say that im not feeling very well or that its due to a personal matter.
