Awesome SickiesA colleague has been off work for two weeks now - apparently he's got something they can't diagnose, (although they know for sure it's not Legionnaires, Malaria, BSE or AIDS, he's supposedly in isolation). We are all sure he's merely sitting in the sun waiting for the World Cup to come on the telly.
What have you invented to get off work?

Senile DementiaAround five years ago, I used to work at the foodcourt at my local International Aiport (a truly hellish job). Anyway, I had a rather, how shall I say, mental colleague, who clearly in no way lived in reality.
He claimed to have a wife who was a European supermodel (despite being a rather obtuse and ugly 50 year old) and has a Ferrari which he won in a lottery (yet he cycles to work). He apparently rents out a villa in Spain to the Beckhams and was only working cleaning tables for "the fun of it".
Anyway, he was also the master of sickies. Sickies so ludicrous that you would give them to him just for the audacity of trying them.
1) He called in saying that he had fell down his stairs and broke his neck... he lives in a bungalow.
2) He had SARS. No joke, he called in to say he had a 24-hour case of SARS.
He's still there.
EDIT - Oh, yeah - "First post! Woo Yay! (length/girth joke) etc etc.
