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?

err - I mean Headache... shitOne fine wednesday evening I went over to my mate Jimmy's and pick up a small amount of the 'erb (back in the day). Next thing I know its daylight and we've been swallowing/sniffing/smoking/drinking everything we can lay our hands on and I'm supposed to drive to work (unlikely). Time for a sickie.
Tried to get hold of several people who would be 'understanding' of my predicament. No Luck.
So I call my boss - no answer - voice mail. I leave the following message:
"Morning Mel - I'm afraid I can't come in today I've got a terrible hangover... I mean headace... ... ...shit.
I'll let you know when I feel better."
and I hang up (this was pre 'to re-record your message'...).
Turns out that she was off ill for the next few days and when she got back all she said was
'Morning Patch - hows the headace'
Oh - and she forwarded the VM to pretty much the entire company.
