#6 – Tummy Trouble
This is one of the most popular sickie excuses out there, because you can guarantee no one will ask too many questions. If they do, well… imaginative, horrific details are your friend. Stomach issues are a particularly useful one to choose if you work with food: no one wants to infect the customers with whatever you have, so the responsible thing to do is stay home! It’s a (disgusting) win-win situation.
