    After a major night on the beer one of my mates (Dave) was ringing in sick. For some stupid reason, he thought his excuse would be better than ringing in "sick".

    Dave (putting on a strong dublin accent for some reason) - howerya.
    Boss - hello dave.
    Dave - cant come in today. Rough night last night. Spent the night in the cells.
    Boss - WHAT?
    Dave - Ah, sure, you know yerself, I was locked up for the night in Pearse Street garda station.
    Boss - WHAT?
    Dave - Well you know yerself. I didnt get much sleep, so I suppose I'll see you tomorrow.
    Boss - WHAT?

    Click.

    Another mate of mine took a few days off saying that his (already dead) grandad had died. when he came back in, another guy he worked with kept talking to him about it, becasue his grandmother had just recently died.

    He kept it up for months saying stuff like "do you still miss him" and stuff like that. Fecking bad buzz for my mate, serves him right for saying someone died.

    The best excuse I've used is telling work I had asthma attacks during the night. Tee hee. Diarhea (sp?) is a good one aswell - never gets too many questions. also "I'm stuck in wexford", or "my flatmate took my keys by accident and locked me into the flat" is a real classic. Works every time.

    Hmmm - sorry about this - I must've hit "new thread" instead of "reply".

    Was supposed to reply to the "best sicky" thread.

    Ahhhh - I know - I'm a dickhead.
