7. Elective Surgery
If you say you have scheduled elective surgery, you should get a couple of days off. This is definitely one good excuse to miss work in advance. If your boss isn’t too strict and doesn’t ask for any proof, anyway. So, what kind of surgery? The options are numerous. It can be a cosmetic surgery. You can, for example, say that you are removing your tattoo. And since your tattoo is not in any place easily visible, we are sure that no one is going to ask “from where” or for any proof that you actually removed it.
