Take a shit on your bosses desk, that'll get you more time off than you could ever wish for.

I was watching a television program a couple of weeks ago and this was hilarious...

Go to your local park/common/green, collect all the dogshit you can find. Take it home, put the dog shit in a blender with a few pints of water, Transfer into a pump action water pistol and approach you boss when he appears most vunrable...

Last year I couldn't book time off for Leeds so I had to do two shifts the week before to "let me off".

There's always a way around it, in my case though you have to exhaust yourself to get it.

The excuse of very bad concussion either obtained at a concert by falling off the stage while stage diving/falling off a podium in a club/a nasty hit in the head at a friendly sports match always works for me especially if the boss KNOWS that you were already going to aforementioned concert/club/friendly match!

They cant prove a thing against you, the excuse could be very legitimate and you can hardly come into work cos you might die cos of the concussion! Voila! Been using that one for years with various bosses...

helps as well as an alternative to a monster hangover excuse any other time folks!

My fave excuse was the Chems concert I went to in London a couple of years back, boss knew I was going but when I got to the show, it turned out it wasnt going to end until midnight and so I would not be able to get back to T Wells for work the next day. And so, happily trotted off to Reading after the show (not T Wells) that night with CHocky and rang in to tell them I had been dancing so madly to the band that I slipped off the sofas that adorn Koko in Camden and I had badly done my back in! Luckily the concert was on a Thursday so 4 days of rest at 'home' could not be questioned and I rocked up again on Monday mostly 'recovered'!

Just tell the boss you are going to a Glasto warm up show somewhere on the Wed or Thurs and tell em you got hit by a flying bottle of Magners or something at the gig and you are going to the West country to 'recuperate'!

I got a call last night from my friend who is a treacher. She'd been called to the headmasters office where she was told her holidays werent being authorised.

I know she wasnt wise when she left the holiday request so late but shes had to cancel her tickets and her fiances. It would have been her first time at Glasto. I felt so sorry for her when she told me!
