PML @ numbers 9 and 13, cracked me up
What excuse(s) have you used?
Kwak, I've not used any of those myself but I did get a call from my boss and she'd got herself stuck with No. 14!
Needless to say once she got into work we took the p**s summat rotten
Now I think about it I remember one day I was locking my front door and the handle fell off which meant I couldn't lock the door, cost me £15, which was the call-out fee for the locksmith, he let me off the labour charges. That was one expensive door handle lol
I had a member of staff ring me once to say the previous night her budgie had fallen off his perch and broken his leg. Cos it was late at night she couldn`t take it to a vets so had used a match as a splint and taped his little leg up. The next morning she`d come down to find her kids screaming and the budgie in ashes. Her excuse for not coming into work was that the budgie must have fallen off his perch in the night and the sulphur from the match had struck the sandpaper on the bottom of the cage hence she had to console her kids and go out to buy a new budgie!!
years ago a friend rang in work and said the cat had been run over so she couldnt come to work. Another excuse was she had had a miscariage on the bus, but expected to be in tomorrow.
A colleague once rang in to say that she'd no dry knickers as they'd only just come out of the washing machine. But she really wanted to come into work, so she'd tried to dry them out quickly under the grill - and burnt them to cinders! That story follows he round to this day...
One of my lads must be the unluckiest person going, he has been of work for at least three grandads dying ( one of which lived in Spain, hence the tan when he came back), grandmas aunts uncles have also passed away in abundance, i feel sorry for him im sure he really wants to work????????
I bet hes not even got a black suit, ah yer gotta laf aint yer just.
boomboom
rube, your sick
I've had to use number 14!
how about, i cant come into work the plankton parents have parked accross my drive again whilst they drop there their snivelling, mewling little spoilt brats off at school and had the obligatory 30 minute whine with other parents!
Oh and this morning ............ sorry i turned the house upside down looking for my bike keys, but i found them under the bike cover still in the ignition
