Excuses, Excuses, Excuses...

SUMMARY: Use the following sites for ideas when you can't make it to work on time.

Nearly everyone is familiar with the classic school-age excuse for not bringing in an assignment on time:

"My dog ate my homework".

That excuse won't work in the real world. But some people thought these might.

For not showing up for a job:

"I'm not coming to work today because my computer has got a virus. And my computer means more to me then this job."

When getting pulled over:

"Sorry, Officer, I didn't realize my radar wasn't plugged in."

For breaking a diet:

"French fries are vegetables."

These and other funny, dumb, and probably completely unusable excuses are available on the following sites (listed for informational purposes only). Note that some of the excuses are not for kiddies!
