Tulla Excuses

Please come up with some "believable’ excuses one can give to your boss to take a day off from work. This applies mostly to those of us in the western hemisphere where the play times will be right smack middle of the work hours.

I need one for tomorrow ASAP. Creativity has no limits when it comes to desi bahaanay.

Re: Tulla Excuses

Call the boss at 7 AM and say "I had some seafood at this exostic Thai restaurant last night and have spent more time on the toilet than in the bed since. If I do come to work with the prevailing conditions, I will only create more work for the janitor who happens to be on vacation. I think I will telecommute today, if that is allright with you"

Hang up the voicemail recording, turn over in the bed and wake up an hour later to watch the toss.

Re: Tulla Excuses

What if your workplace had an automated answering service like this? In order to assist you in connecting to the right staff member, please listen to all your options before making a selection:

  • To lie about your illness, press 1
  • To make excuses for why you want a day off from work, press 2
  • To complain about what we do, press 3
  • To swear at staff members, press 4
  • To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your newsletter and several flyers mailed to you, press 5
  • To speak to a member of the Union, press 6
  • If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone, press 7
  • To request another room for the third time this year, press 8
  • To complain about bus/rail transportation, press 9
  • To complain about staff lunches, press 0 *]If you realize this is the real world and you must be accountable and responsible for your own behavior and course work, presentations etc...... hang up and have a nice day!"

Re: Tulla Excuses

here is my genuine problem:

My boss (a Desi) is also a die hard cricket fan and he knows that tomorrow is the opening game. Now as he will be maring tulla tomorrow, he will catch my any such excuse :(

What should I do?
