'I've got a poorly bum' doesn't usually raise too many eyebrows/lines of questioning.

Has anyone got anything more substantial for the less creative among us?

Ps, if Barry from HR is reading this, I'm asking for a friend.

Suck it up buttercup and just go in horrifically hungover. Or start work at 2200 tomorrow so you've got plenty of time to sober up, works for me.

I would imagine that food poisoning is a solid choice, allows for a few days if needed and enough people have had it to feel sympathy.

Or raging toothache, no-one would doubt someone who says they've got an awful abcess...would they?!

I'm going in drunk. I don't care. I only have a £500k machine to run and a 2 ton forklift to drive. One a scale of 1-10 I have zero ****s to give. I shall probably care a bit more on day 2 of the hangover.

And is technically true as alcohol is a form of foodstuff!
