      What kind of sickness have you lied about so you wouldn't go to work or school?

      I always lied that I have flu and can't even leave my bed so I wouldn't go to school before. But now that I am working, I always use the same excuse, there's a flood on the next street and I couldn't pass through. I hate going to work when it's raining.

      If I absolutely have to, I claim botchulism. Very hard to prove either way. I've not had a day off work sick in nearly three years, though.

      On two separate occassions I've claimed food poisoning. Haven't done that in years though. I always feel bad when I have to miss work anyway. xD

      Re: What kind of sickness have you lied about so you wouldn't go to work or school?

      I get rather bold when claiming sickness. I used to claim normal things such as flu, then started to make them more and more ostentatious. Such as accidentally consuming hallucinagenic mushrooms from the garden and aggressive fleas.

      So death, the most terrifying of ills, is nothing to us, since so long as we exist, death is not with us; but when death comes, then we do not exist. It does not then concern either the living or the dead, since the former it is not, and the latter are no more.

      I always use dizziness or flu. Only done it a few times though since I like paychecks

      I usually just say "I can't come in" because really, I'm better off giving less detail.

      The other day I had to call off for an appointment and had people asking if I was okay, though. I didn't have the heart to tell anyone I wasn't actually sick.

      What kind of sickness have you lied about so you wouldn't go to work or school?

      Last week I lied about having a bad back. In truth I was fine but I needed to get my bike sorted for its MOT.

      When I got back to work Friday my manager wasn't happy.

      Hahaha. Maybe your manager happened to pass by in a street where the bike repair is located and saw you there?

      I feel terrible about lying about it so much but I always just said I stomach pains, simple but you know...

      Although I've never lied to my employer about being ill I constantly pulled sickies for school!

      Hmm... do you not get full paid sick leave?

      Re: What kind of sickness have you lied about so you wouldn't go to work or school?

      I blame my grandfather's girlfriends' cooking. She's the worst cook and my boss knows it, so if I say I have food poisoning, he knows where it comes from. Calling in doesn't result in less pay, either, since I can just make up the hours within the two-week pay period.

      My mom used to go all out, but she would use me as an excuse. As far as her co-workers know, I fell down a flight of stairs at school and broke my leg and then I was anemic (those are the only excuses I know of).

      Re: What kind of sickness have you lied about so you wouldn't go to work or school?

      Honestly, I was sick so much for real in school that I never really had to make up an excuse. Same with work, I guess. During school/childhood it was Strep throat, which I got all the damn time. Now it's migraines, anxiety, and dizziness. My body hates me.

      If I had to lie, I'd probably just say the flu or something.

      Well, your grandfather's girlfriends' cooking is funny. And your boss actually believe she's the worst is the funniest part of it. Hahaha
