I was spit on by a venomous snake.


I totaled my wife's jeep in a collision with a cow.


A hitman was looking for me.

In fact, the study found only 38 percent of unscheduled absences are due to personal illness, while 62 percent are for other reasons

Duh. Why waste a day off of work being sick?

My boss reminded me my sick time doesn't roll over, so I might want to come down with an occasional cough or sore throat toward the end of the fiscal year.

I almost called in "sick" today, just so I could stay home and amp up for the next 2 hours of "24".
