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?

Still went in.....I once claimed to have broken ribs for an entire month. I was going through a pretty bad time of it and was drinking heavily every night. So I'd roll into work between one and two hours late every morning. Looking like death warmed up claiming that I'd been to the infirmary for steroid injections to sort out damaged cartilage every morning. Because I still actually turned up to work I never had to show a sick note. And I had actually hurt my ribs but not that badly.
Funnilly enough I rarely take sick days now. Even when I'm pretty ill. I think it corresponds with not drinking very much these days.
