Hello. To make a long story short, I need a foolproof excuse to get out of work for a day. It can’t be “I’m sick” I need a legitimate excuse and I’m not sure what to do.
The backstory is, a job I have worked at for a little over 2 years is not allowing me to take a day off that I absolutely need off. I requested it off 6 months ago, to which they denied. Now that the day is coming up that I need off, I don’t know what to do. I’m too much of a people pleaser to call out unless I have a legitimate reason. But I’m also frustrated because I’m always putting in extra hours for this company and I never have called out. I’m in school, so would telling them I just got hired for an internship work? I have no idea how internships work and how long they last or how frequent they are. Could I get a doctors note and if so how? Need ideas
