how tf do i call out of work. i never do this shit and i'm always terrified of doing it. i hate my job and would much rather do the thing with my friends tomorrow but i'm a terrible liar and have a deep seated need to be seen as doing good, even by my fucking b*ss. does anyone have any tips for how to do it?

    I feel extremely uncomfortable lying and I usually will just say "I'm not going to be able to make it in, I'm using a sick day" but I work for a big corporation that staffs a lot of people and builds an expected amount of daily staff shrinkage into the staffing plan so they don't like, interrogate people, may not work for everyone.
