1. The best excuse is always the truth
I know, I know, this doesn’t sound so good. But we had to put it in the first place on this list of 10 good excuses to miss work in advance because this was one was recommended many times. And, when you think about it, this is not bad advice at all. If you have a normal boss anyway. If you are lucky and have a good relationship with your boss, if you share mutual respect, and you are a good employee, telling the truth might really be the best excuse ever. A good boss should know that being good to their employees is the best way to keep them motivated. If they get the break, they’ll work harder. So, go for it, give your boss a chance to be a good boss, and save yourself from all the troubles lying can cause.
