Getting out of work.
I am supposed to be working tonight. I already called up and said I wouldn't be in till 5 because I was out of town. But now my stomach is turning. I think I'm going to council.
Do you think I should stick with the out of town story instead of complicating and saying that I'm now sick? I hate calling up as well. Any one want to do it for me? |
Out of town, unfamiliar food there last night...been feeling a bit off but now you're sure due to, er, embarrassing symptoms.
Any doc will give you a cert, just tell them you've got cold sweats and sudden bursts of needing to take a shit, a shit that comes out more liquid than solid. Make sure to just subtly throw in towards the beginning "yeah I'm here off work". I don't think too many ever want to pry into that. |
yup...
diarrhea no one likes to say it - even when you have it, you don't want to tell anyone, so admitting it is all the evidence anyone needs and no one wants to be around it. It is the golden excuse, but can only be used once or twice at any job without raising questions about your intestinal fortitude |
O.k, I probably don't need to give them any deatail, I just don't feel like making the call.
Is it wrong if I just send them an email? Probably not, the boss is at his p.c all day anyway. |

Same here.
Just call 'em, don't try to sound sick, just matter of fact 'em, and say you're prepping to go get some meds. |
Exactly, especially since the runs arent going to make you sound like anything. Unless you dont have a cell phone,t hen you can sound desperate :D (I HAVE TO GET OFF THE PHONE, DEAR GOD! HERE IT COMES!)

Maybe I could just email my boss a link to this thread.

I was going to suggest you make sure they dont know you frequent this site and your username. I dont doubt that the people I work for know my screen name here, so if I had anything bad to say, I wouldnt (but I dont ;)). |
