Work Excuses
------------

We get hurt, we visit the doctor, they give us an excuse to give to
work. Well, most of the time it's true, but there are times that we need
one because we really didn't get hurt...
 
1.  To whom it may concern. ______________ broke his femur bone in half
skateboarding in an empty swimming pool in a skateboard park over the
week-end and is in the hospital for a month and might not be able to
work for 6 months.
 
2.  Your employee ______________ was riding his son's BMX bike and broke
his left ankle in two place and will be out of work for 4 months.
 
3.  _______________ broke his hand when he slugged the wall because of a
fight with his brother. He should be out of work for about 6 weeks.
 
4.  _______________ will not be able to work for 6 months because she
was riding on the back of a tandem bike and her husband swerved a little
to miss some water and ended up falling down and breaking her pelvic
bone.
 
5.  This is a true, too... I went to a friend's house and was playing
with her puppy on the floor of her living room. When I stood up, there
was a fish hook embedded in my knee (her boyfriend had dropped it or
something.) Well, I went to the ER to get a tetanus shot, not expecting
any problems, got home, got sick as a dog and missed work for three
days!!! I haven't had a tetanus shot since... And I was wondering why
they asked me if I needed a note for work, glad I had it just in case.
  
6.  My sister-in-law stayed with us a short time and hated to help load
the wood stove. So she claimed she went to the doctor and he diagnosed
her with poplaritis, she said it was from touching the poplar wood.
Funny thing is we never burn poplar. This excuse could be used for many
things, Teacheritis, custodialitis, bartenteritis and so on.
 
7.  When I Have a Doctors appointment, and I do not feel like going I
say when I call the doctor to cancel: I am too sick to come in to see
you.
 
8.  Here's one I've used with success. I live in San Diego and there are
a lot of Mexican restaurants here. When I don't want to go to the
doctor, etc, I call them and say that I had eaten some Mexican food the
night before and that I must have gotten some bad (toxic) guacamole!
Then I proceed to tell them how I was up all night vomiting and having
diarrhea! Of course, I have to be careful not to use this one too often!
;-)
 
9.  Please excuse _________ for being absent yesterday she went to her
mother's doctor appointment with her.
