Barnaby,
What’s a good excuse to give your boss when you’ve used up all your sick days but there’s no chance in hell you’re going to make it to work that morning?
Love Aimee
Hey Aimee,
This one is simple. Always go with a stomach problem. Any ailment you explain to your boss regarding your stomach will conjure up images of horror in his/her mind. To be specific, those images of horror will involve projectile vomit, diarrhea or blood from ‘lady issues’ so the boss will not ask any questions and will want you as far away from the office as possible. The chances are you’ll just get a polite “Get well soon” before the boss hangs up quickly which will make it easy for both of you.
Also, with the modern climate of technology ruling everything, don’t be afraid to just send the reason in an email or even a text. That seems to be ok these days, but don’t forget to turn your phone off straight after, so you can recover from your hangover in complete peace.
Cheers,
barnaby
