2. Personal reasons
Now, this one on our list of good excuses to miss work on short notice is one of the best. Why? Well, because you don’t have to invent anything! No details! True story. The scenario goes like this: you say you’re afraid you can’t come to work today. When the boss asks you why simply and politely say you can’t talk about it: Something came up. Personal reasons. I’m sorry, I cant talk about it…” Don’t forget to send your apologies to whoever was counting on you that day.
