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?

Boozehound blues...Being a Government drone i'm barely at my desk half the time anyway so have no need to pull sickies - the only times i've called in have been when i'm genuinely sick or injured.
However, drinking is a bit of a grey area, is being sick due to over-indlugence worthy of guilt? I think not.
I once had a couple of days off for cycling into a wall after a bottle of Jack Daniel's, and on another occasion I had haangover so bad I had to come home at lunchtime, claiming flu, and I had to take an extra day off, because flu doesn't clear up in 24 hours as we all know :-D
My mate works in the music industry. He called in to go to a gig, not realising his boss was attending as well. I mean, that's something you'd check right? He was fired on the spot. Twat!
