This is a question Why I was late

"On the way to the station, I got hit by a bat, it almost took my head clean off. Then the machine would not accept my ticket and the guy at the gate didn't think I looked like the photo on my travel card. So I had to go home and get my passport.

Then the train was 45 minutes late to the station because of the dangerous badger threat at Carpenters Park.

When I was on the train it took and hour and a half to get past the biscuit factory because the driver was really fat.

Then there was a delay stopping at the station because the train in front had heard we were coming and decided to play a practical joke with a rubber shoe on the track.

That is why I couldn't get here on time today."

What's your best excuse?

before i came to this job
i phone up my work at 8 am to leave a message as i knew no one would be in til 8.30, the croaky message said i'd been up all night being sick, in reality the evening before i'd driven across the country to attend a job interview the next day, i got offered the job the same day and accepted, and then drove back across the country to go to work the following day.

the next day everyone was all 'how are you?' and 'are you feeling better?', but i think they might have sussed me when the following day i handed my notice in.
