You won't be in today for work because....

ladybug2004 · 08-04-2005, 11:09 AM

-I have never ever missed a day of work, but, everyone else seems to be ill on sunny 85 degree days and then come in the next day with a sunburn, soooo, since my sick days have piled up, I need to use some or lose them.
So, now its my turn.....

-When you dont want to go to the office, or where ever, what do you use as an excuse? And, what do you do when your off ?

Are you trying to be cool?

I have a close relationship with my boss. When I wanted off for the Tiki opening, I told her. She just said: "Have fun!"

However, I don't think it's anyone's business WHY you want off if you're given the time.

Mental health day or "sick" kid.

If I'm sick, I say I'm sick. If I just want to take a day off, I tell the boss "all my work is done, I'm taking a mental health day".

If they say no and want to know why, will you quit your job and try and get it back later?

You mean RETIRE, and then say "PSYCH!"

I tell them I won't be coming in - usually for something I DO actually get, like back pain.

THEN I make sure I correct my timesheet when I get in, because my timekeeper ALWAYS MARKS ALL TIME OFF as annual leave, no matter what I tell her ahead of time.

And it's not that she's on to me - it's just incompetence.
