A friend of mine once pulled a sickie and went to Dublin with her OH for the day.
They pulled up to a set of traffic lights and they were car jacked, they trailed her OH out of the car and drove off at full speed and then opened the passenger door and lobbed her out.
Result - broken leg, badly bruised, 2 day stay in Dublin Hospital and the entire work whispering for weeks!

I know someone who worked in personnel at BT a good few years ago. Apparently, as part of her job, she had to interview all the people who returned from long or unusual pattern sickleave. She interviewed this one guy who always seemed to have at least one sick day off every week - with no Doctors note. Anyway, a few days later, she gets into a taxi outside the station and lo and behold, there is the guy she has just interviewed. He has been taking sickies to take shifts as a taxi driver.... BUSTED!!!

when hubbie was a youngster he desperately wanted to go to a fishing comp but his Mum wouldn't let him have the day off - so he bunked forging a note given to a friend to hand in at school. He didn't win but the following day in the Bristol evening post was a photo on the front page showing him as the youngest contestant fishing (the photographer had taken a piccie of him from across the bank!)

He got his missus to call me saying he was down with the flu on a "Friday"
At the "London Car Show" I got in the passenger side of the new CLK Merc and who do I find in the drivers seat chatting up the young eye candy attendant - dressed up in a suit (makes a change from what he wore too work usually).
Grovel is a word to describe the next month
But I am a fair person
Made sure the rest of the team got lots of cakes and made full use of our new coffee/tea boy

Worked with a chap years ago, that also had a part time job in a petrol station as a cashier, he often covered other shifts and pulled sickies form his full time job - until........ he was held up at the petrol station by a thug with a hammer and whacked once, no major harm done but front page on the 'Cambridge News' as far as I know our manager never did spot the story.......

Me and my mate bunked off school one day to come up to London to go to a Bon Jovi concert at Wembley Stadium. Obviously loads of people there, but who did we manage to bump into.......? Our Geography teacher (who was also meant to be at school that day!).

Me and my friend decided to bunk off our Commerce lesson - but left the decisio too late and the only place to hide was the girls' loo. Only problem was the door was right opposite the classroom - so we had to stay in there for the whole lesson
I'd have rather been in class
