What excuses are serious enough to help me get enough sympathy to keep my job when I have skipped two days of work with no contact?
Please help me with some unethical lies to save my job. I know this is terrible. But please bare with me and try to understand, and possibly offer up advice if any.
So I’m not proud of this to say the least and I’m pissed at myself for the situation I got myself in. However my bosses have also screwed me over time and time again (I am currently looking for another job, but also appreciate the experience I’m building while still at this one).
On Wednesday afternoon, after work (I am only part time) I went home and when my boss texted and called me a couple times, I didn’t answer because they ALWAYS contact me after hours asking for things and I’m sick of it. I’m part time for a reason. I was also having a bad mental health day, and was very anxious to begin with.
After ignoring the 2-3 messages I got, the next morning I had an anxiety attack before going to work over not responding to them (even though it was after work hours), bc they are always passive aggressive over how much work I’m able to get done in a day (yet they demoted me from full time to part time to “save the business money”). So panic stricken, i did work from home for a couple hours and ignored all the texts and calls I got yesterday as well. I didn’T know what to say about the not answering the 2 calls I received the previous night.
I’ve basically ghosted them for a day and a half and don’T know what to do. My anxiety has been through the roof all week, and I let it get to me on Wednesday, but that increased my anxiety further and made me hide out scared to answer anyone from works calls.
I’ve gotten a bunch of texts asking if I was okay, and I think more petiole seem worried than angry. So I think if I have a good enough excuse I can say that I haven’T been focused on my phone or the outside world. My father has had some health issues recently (minor). Is there some sort of excuse involving him having to go to the hospital for something liver related, etc. that’s serious enough for me to have gone awol for two days but also garners enough sympathy that they’ll understand and be cool with me coming back in next week?
A good medical emergency excuse for a family member that is serious but also not serious enough where the person in question is on their hypothetical death bed. I still need the money from these terrible people while I look for another job. Please help me think of something to finally say to them that will make them feel bad and help me keep my job a bit longer. I hate letting my mental health hinder me and stop me from the outside world.
I NEED EXCUSES ASAP
