106-9 Kicks Country #1 For New Country
Career Builder just released its annual list of the craziest excuses people have used for calling in sick to work. Here are the top ten . . .
1. A guy claimed his grandmother poisoned him with ham.
2. An employee said they couldn’t make it in, because they were stuck under their bed.
3. A guy’s sandwich fell on the floor, and he broke his arm trying to catch it.
4. A guy claimed the universe was telling him he needed a day off.
5. A guy’s wife caught him cheating, and he had to get all his stuff out of a dumpster.
6. A woman said she was brushing her hair, and poked herself in the eye.
7. A guy couldn’t come to work, because his wife put all of his underwear in the wash.
8. A guy was too embarrassed to come in, because the food he’d made for an employee potluck didn’t turn out well.
9. A woman said she had to go to the beach, because she needed more vitamin D.
10. A woman said she couldn’t come in, because her cat was stuck in her dashboard.
The survey also found that 38% of us have called in sick this year when we actually felt fine, which is up from 28% last year.
