‘Bank Robber (texting via my phone): Your employee is tied up right now’; Workers share the best excuses they have actually had to use for not coming into work
We have all had to call out of work for whatever reason. Maybe you're not feeling well so you call in sick. Or maybe you're just feeling the pressures of capitalism and need a mental health day. Or maybe you missed a flight. Whatever it is, you tend to keep it brief and hope for the best. At least that's the usual consensus. However, there are some employees who work for toxic managers who don't trust their excuses and pry for more and more proof of why they are missing work.
Well, when they do that, you just gotta give them what they want. You've got food poisoning? Don't hold back on every detail about it. One Redditor posted a question asking what has been the craziest line people have used to call out of work and boy to some people have some wild stories. From quitting on the spot to gross details, some people really let their managers have it. One guy was literally being held hostage during a bank robbery and the robber took his phone to text his boss he was "tied" up. (We hope pun intended…)
