Excuses to get out of work??!!....

[migrator00]

What is your best story you have told to get off work to Duck/Goose hunt?

I know I was able to get away w/ a truck that just wouldn't start at 2 different jobs.... :wink: Vacation days run out to fast boys......

[Max4Gooser]

"Chief I have avian fever, and don't think I can make it in next day."

[SMOKE]

LOL with weather like this in illinois i got a great one its called LAYED OFF :wink:

[IowaMigr8tor]

I was going to say "I have the Avian Flu" but didn't know if that would be funny or not seeing as it could effect our sport.

[Max4Gooser]

That's why you turn it into a fever, then it is not an out and out lie either :wink:

At least that is my way of thinkin'

[Foilesmigrator92]

Hmmm well to get off school. My dad called me in and said I was havin HORRIBLE dierhea. Got the job done

[h20fowler]

Good resurrection....

I got a great story. One evening we get a hair brained Idea to drive 3 hours west to my parents house for a morning duck hunt and an evening goose hunt. One of those fly by night trips.

Needless to say I forgot to call in early in the morning so I went to the truck at 7:30 to call my boss. Voicemail.... I'm in luck. Tell him I don't feel well and I'll keep him updated on whether or not I'll be in the next day or not. After all, who know what the birds are going to do today! :wink:

Next day arrives. I'm at my desk thinking about the great hunt the day prior and sipping on my coffee. About 30 minutes go by when I get an email asking me to come to his office. He tells me to close the door. He then says "Jeremy, if you're going to call in sick to go hunting, just tell me you're hunting. I'd rather you say that then try to be sneaky and lie to me." I'm praying for one of those "Kit Kat moments" to gather myself. Then he says.... "you want to know how I know don't you." Before I can say a word he says, "I've taken a lot of I'm sick phone calls. some believable, others not. But this is the first one where I could hear gun shots in the background."

DOH - I laughed and told him I did live in a bad neighborhood, but would take his recomondation to heart if I got sick again.

Ended on a good note and no more fibing to get out of work. He'd simply ask if I was going to be in by noon, if I was taking Sick/vac time, or making the hours up later.

[GOOSEHANSON]

At mine and FOSTER'S work...you don't need an excuse to go huntin...you just tell the boss you're taking the day off and it's done...no stories, just go have fun...goose :lol:

[HRK]

excuse ???????? dont need one, i just go. dont call in or nothin......

[Tripp_kilntime_Carraway]

Just tell your boss that you have 'anal glycoma" you just cant see your a$$ coming to work today.


Best one I ever pulled, I told my boss that the roads in my area where too bad for me to drive on. He laughed at me. I was driving a bronco on 35x15.5 superswampers. and it was only 2 or 3 inches of snow. (in my town, that shuts things down for a day or 2)

[mnbenelli]

At my office......I AM THE BOSS! 'nough said!

[montanaboy]

Working for the gov't, it's easy. Just tell the boss I want that day to hunt. No problem. Helps he hunts too...

[GR8HNTR]

I dont have to call in sick, just tell the boss I am going goose hunting. He says take me and we are on! The best one was when he told me to call the owner of the Ford Meridian store in Boise, Idaho and take a day off to take his two sons and him out hunting. My boss tells me when to take a day off and go hunting. What more do i need! ! They know here when its goose season, I just have to say be in late tomorrow. Tried that last season and had to take my manager, the owner and his son out for the morning.

[Jayson Wilt]

I told one of my managers that I had waderfoot which he somehow though was a foot condition until his manager thanked him for letting me off to hunt with him and his buddies..... Now my manger at the time was an anti-hunter and it really chapped his @$$ that he couldnt do anything about it at all....

[ducksngeese80]

I"ve actually told my boss the "anal glaucoma" one Tripp. 3 of us left early and thats what we told the boss but then we said we were going hunting and had a good laugh. It helps being a government employee.

[MNduckkiller]

It helps being a government employee.

I'm glad you didn't say "government worker," because that would have been a contraidiction in itself.

All Right here it is guys, my Dad told me to use this one because my supposed "We can't discriminate" and "We must be UNDERSTANDING" left-winger teacher wasn't going to let me take off a week of school to go deer hunting. I told her, in exact words, "It is a religious holiday that I cannot miss."
