I don't make up excuses to get out of work
If I need time off I am able to book it off as paid holiday.
This seems to work fairly well for both me and my employer.

Alt: Cunt.

Similarly
Last time I went to hospital I told my boss I needed a day off as I was undergoing minor surgery. He seemed to accept this as a reasonable excuse for time off. What a world eh??

terrible ain't it,
I had to take 2 months off after a nasty accident, and I still got paid due to my longevity within the company. It's a wonder the world still spins.

When will David CameWRONG learn
That paying people for being loyal and hardworking is RUINING the fabric of this great nation. IF PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO WORK THEY SHOULDN'T BE FORCED TO!
