Late for Work Excuses
  • In my night dreams, you told me it was a day off today, so I kept sleeping and woke up late.
  • My salary is too small. My last month salary is spent 100%, so I had to go to work by foot.
  • My wife called me a fool, so I had to spend about an hour to convince her that she was wrong.
  • I met your daughter in a night club and she told me, in your opinion, it was OK to be late for work.
  • A ball lightning penetrated into my flat. It was wondering near the exit door and thus blocking my way out for about an hour.

I found a collection of funny work excuses. It's here.

Below are some sample work excuses from that collection.

  • I won't be in to work today. My brain is full.

  • The blankets were too heavy for me to lift so I was stuck in bed all day.

  • I felt so sick that I didn't feel like getting out of bed to get to the telephone to call in sick.

  • I can't come in today. I looked in the mirror and I saw wrinkles. Ugh!

  • Sorry I'm late, but I couldn't get my car started because I was asleep.
