Truthful Tuesday: Why Lie?

Today’s question is What is the best (or worst) fib you have told to get out of going to school/work/or somewhere you don’t want to go?

My excuses were actually pretty standard: I’m sick, wife is sick, cat is sick etc. Occasionally I’d take a personal business day, and if asked would say "it’s personal business." When I was interviewing for a job with a company based in Atlanta, I actually told my boss "I have interviews in Atlanta tomorrow." He was cool with it. I think he wanted to be rid of me…
