my dog ate my homework

I'm kinda peeved right now because I checked the bus service to my event awhile back to make sure it wasn't like a 2-hour trip on Sundays, and it was thirty minutes, but I had a staff complain it was more like 75 minutes - and he lived right by me, and claimed to have used the same website as me to find it. Naturally, I was somewhat irritated, since he had to be lying, one of the things I truly can't stand in staff - and my standards are pretty low.

So here it is...

Worst excuses I've actually heard for missing work

I need an emergency hair cut.

I accidentally knocked my phone off the hook and my ride couldn't buzz my apartment.

I've been on a drinking binge with my mom for the past 5 days (more unfortunate than anything).

I have to watch the Superbowl (wrong day).

I got too much sun, and now I have symptoms exactly like a hangover.

My other work called me and asked me if I wanted an extra shift last night and I said yes.

I would have booked it off but I figured you wouldn't have wanted me to call at 2am last night.
