Being sick excuse #41 - how to add a few days to your vacation

Posted by: the complete slacker on Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

I have a great way to add a few extra days to your vacation time at work.

Now, at most work places you get a set number of days that you can take for vacation. And you have to get those approved. So, here is what you do. You get those days approved. Then you let people think that you are driving where ever it is that you are going. Then on the day before you are supposed to be back to work, you call work. Make sure you call from a cell phone with a lot of outdoor/ road noise in the background. Tell them that you were on your way home and your car broke down. Tell them that the repair shop had to order the part. That means it will be a couple or three more days before you can make it back in. Promise to call them as soon as the part gets in with an update of when you will return to work.

Now, enjoy that extra vacation!
