Your 'excuses' for missing work next Friday... let's hear 'em.

No excuse, I’m just not going to show up.
And when I don’t they’ll say, “we didn’t see you at work on Friday.”
And then I’ll say “Nobody does, I’m the wind, baby.”

Joel definitely did end up in Australia, not sure if it was the outback, and though I don’t remember that episode of the Regular Show, I used to watch that it with my son, so it could have crept in there subconsciously.

No need for excuses. I have my own office and my hearing aids have Bluetooth.

I have to go watch my grandma skydive.

Actually I work weekends a lot so I usually have fridays off instead.

I knew this unemployment thing would pay off sooner or later. No boss, no job, no need to ask permission.

I’d make excuses and skip work that day, but my boss is a real a**hole.

I’m self-employed.

Have you tried taking him out, getting him plastered, and really unloading on him?

I’m unpacking my interocitor parts. According to the instruction manual it shouldn’t take too long.

Well, what I did was report that I have a meeting that night that I have to attend since I already paid for it. Although that sounds weird now that I say it out loud. And since I set my own hours I am not sure why I came up with the excuse in the first place.

Come to think of it I don’t think I am buying this whole “meeting” thing.

If I had to do so, I’ve always wanted to emulate author Tom Robbins who, I’ve read, called in “well” to quit his day gig and go full-on writer.

“I’ve been sick for some time, but I’m feeling better now and won’t be coming in.”
