5. Eye infection (pink eye)
If your job requires working with people, this is perfect! Just think about it. Your boss surely doesn’t want the customers to be shying away from you, or that your eyes are drawing too much attention. It would be best if you started complaining a day earlier about your poor eye vision, or how your eyes hurt. The following morning, rub the area around your eyes while you’re waiting in front of the office. Better yet, use a menthol stick or glycerin. Fear not, these are regularly used by actors all over the world, and you needn’t put it in your eyes! Simply rub the menthol underneath your eyes and wait for them to turn red. And let the show begin!
