the ironic thing is i had the whole weekend off and then offerd to go in cos i couldnt afford to be off :\

Don't go for a "excuse", talk to your boss(whoever), co-workers.

Try to get a stand in, try to get off by saying that "some plans came up out of the blue".

your shift isn't on paper so it's not a legal cause to fire you.

Depends ofcourse, if you're the only doctor at the local charity hospital...

 

[Everz]

fake your death

Tell them the truth and see if they can rearrange the shift, quite likely (provided you aren't a total git to your co-workers) that someone will cover for you for something like that.

in a physical sense they are.

i did give 2 weeks notice that i need the weekend off for something, then that plan fell through. so i had the days off for no reason so i thought i may aswell work. so she wrote down times in the schedule for me to work, so i did in effect volunteer to go in.

[Vladamir]

If you bunk off hope you don't get interviewed or anything else you're fucked

What about swapping a shift everyone really hates - I dunno like New Years Eve or something?

 

[Solo]

"woman's problems" seems to work without any questions, so give "mans problems" a go

Rotavirus, if they want an explanation as to what this is...

Family member died?

Family member died?

Even I wouldnt go that low - just tell them the truth imo.

hehe yeah say you thought youd scored some charlie but it was dead dog and after snorting half a bag of the stuff...


you feel like shi tzu

ty ty ty *bow*

 

[Naffets]

Tell them you have antidisestablishmentarianism - Nobody at McD's could possibly understand, its too long to comprehend and you'll automatically get a week off.

God Ez that was poor even by your standards

 

[evzy]

Explain to your mate its the X-Factor and you wouldn't be seen dead anywhere near commercial shite TV like that..and go to work..

Easy imo.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Tell them you have antidisestablishmentarianism

Isn't that "Against not creating a building for fat ladies to sing in-ism"? In other words being FOR the building?

Anti(against)dis-establishment(not creating a building)-aria(a song sung by fat lady)-ism.

 

[Mey]

lol Imagine telling them someone in your family died then a few months later they actually did, man you'd look like a fool if you had to book time off for a real reason.

Agreed

 

[soze]

Vertigo very hard to prve you have it when you do so no way they could say you don't have it. Also you cant work with it as you keep falling over

 

[razeredge]

Claim u have multiplepersonalities, and ur other personality volunteered to do the shift, then make a mouth shape with ur hand, and put on a strange voice to prove it =)
OR
Use the old Homer Simpson excuse - you have smallpox

 

[Serbitar]

say your ears are bleeding, its only a partial lie as by the end of crap-factor they will be
