This is a question Awesome Sickies

A 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?

Barman at a large hotel chain
I used to work for a large hotel chain, starts with an H, and ends with a whiny bitch who thinks she has talent and looks, but has neither, ilton!

I used to work extremely long hours for little pay and little recognition, so after a while, I had gotten sick of working for them. They'd start rota'ing me in for work, but because they never phoned me to tell me when I needed to work, I never bothered phoning to find out, so skipped so many shifts that way. The most effective sickie I had though, was the whole "I have diorehha (sp?)". They don't want to ask the details, but if you work in the food industry, they can't let you come into work. BRILLIANT!

After 3 or 4 weeks, I finally got a letter from HR, "Do you still want the job?", to which I replied, "I greatfully respect that I will be resigning in one months time, however, in the meantime, please rota more shifts for me". God how funny it was when I used the same excuses and worked 3 times in 4 weeks!!!!

HAHAHAHA. (sorry for the etc....)
