Awesome SickiesA colleague has been off work for two weeks now - apparently he's got something they can't diagnose, (although they know for sure it's not Legionnaires, Malaria, BSE or AIDS, he's supposedly in isolation). We are all sure he's merely sitting in the sun waiting for the World Cup to come on the telly.
What have you invented to get off work?

My late fatherIf you were to trace my work attendance records back over the last 8 years you'd find that he has in fact passed away a total of 11 times for various reasons.
Hey, what can I say? it's a good 2 weeks off for bereavement (make sure he passes away in the summer) plus another 3 days for the funeral in Ireland :-)
I've only been caught out once thus far so it's not all bad.
I do however get a *slight* pang of guilt when the sympathy cards and collection arrive on my desk upon my return though. The collection goes to charity as I'm not that much of a cunt : )
