The 10 Craziest Sick Day Excuses of 2015

We've all done it. Called in sick even though we may not have been feeling that bad. But some people have taken those excuses to the extreme.

According to PRNewswire Career Builder just released its annual list of the craziest excuses people have used for calling in sick to work.  Here are the top ten . . .

1.  A guy claimed his grandmother poisoned him with ham.

2.  An employee said they couldn't make it in, because they were stuck under their bed.

3.  A guy's sandwich fell on the floor, and he broke his arm trying to catch it.

4.  A guy claimed the universe was telling him he needed a day off.

5.  A guy's wife caught him cheating, and he had to get all his stuff out of a dumpster.

6.  A woman said she was brushing her hair, and poked herself in the eye.

7.  A guy couldn't come to work, because his wife put all of his underwear in the wash.

8.  A guy was too embarrassed to come in, because the food he'd made for an employee potluck didn't turn out well.

9.  A woman said she had to go to the beach, because she needed more vitamin D.

10.  A woman said she couldn't come in, because her cat was stuck in her dashboard.

The survey also found that 38% of us have called in sick this year when we actually felt fine, which is up from 28% last year.

The most popular months for employees to call in sick continue to be December (20 percent), January (15 percent) and February (14 percent).
