@markfox01 Said Here's a bunch of my fav. ways of pulling a sick day...
Extreme Tonsillitis
Inflamed tonsils hurt. If you still have your tonsils, they?re bound to get inflamed one sunny Friday morning. If you no longer have your tonsils, they?re bound to get inflamed one sunny Friday morning.
How long you can take off:
Tonsillitis is contagious. So, heck, you?re doing them a favor by staying out of work for three, four or eight days. Call in your excuse with an entire Twinkie stuffed down your pie hole. When you finally return to the dream factory that is your cubicle, keep an economy-size bottle of vodka-laced Cloraseptic on your desk. If anyone asks how you?re feeling, squirt liberally. Encourage questions.
Ate Bad Seafood
Perfect if you?re hungover: You were puking your guts out last night, so you aren?t technically lying.
How long you can take off:
Bad seafood will level you for at least two days. Unless you say you ate the Japanese blowfish, in which case you can call in dead. Tell the boss, ?I went to this half-price sushi place at Target?ugh, not again?I gotta go?? When you get back to work, flinch every time you walk by the office aquarium.
Migraines
They just happen. Nobody knows why, but everybody knows someone who suffers from them. The pain is so intense that the hum of the printer could send a workaday Joe like yourself into a full-on psychosis.
How long you can take off:
Migraines can last up to a week. When you?re faking it back at the office, think one-sided pain. ?It feels as if someone?s sawing my right temple with a dull knife? will do. Just remember which temple it was.
My Big one is... you wanner go out on the piss thursday night, but you have ran out of leave and cant get out of the piss up.. well...
Monday:- turn up like normal do a normal day, but say that your wife/husband/girl/boyfriend is ill with a stomach bug.. and phone them all day...
Tuesday:- try and get an hour off to take them to the doctors... this plants a image that there really ill
wednesday:- mention to some people that there still ill, but mention your not doing to goood today.. dont eat your sandwitches and spend 10mins in the toilet..
thursday:- come into work, and complain your really ill, then go home half day.. PArty Hard!!!
Friday:- call in sick.. with your hang over you'd sound really ill...
then monday everyone will be concerned!!! try it...
