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…

I had many mental health days when I was a corrections officer,the nice part was all io had to say was i was sick and would take 2 days at a time

I can’t say I haven’t done the same: used for a “mental health day” because people got really big on that lately. Just sued it to my advantage!

It’s good to hear that you didn’t have to resort to any major fibs to avoid going to school or work. Using the standard “sick” excuse can work well. 😊

That’s why I used it so often…
