Quick! I need excuses, and I need them now!

[MrCoffee]

I don't want to go to this useless meeting at 10am. Give me a good reason not to go.

[cloudbase]

1. Get back to me tomorrow.

I'll have a perfect list by then.

[Blue-Jay]

2. "woman problems".

That usually works.

[MrCoffee]

3. I knew I should have shaved this morning...

That would have been perfect, but for the stubble.

[RaVeN_MeaD]

4. EXPLOSIVE DIAREAH

[Angel]

5. Anal Glaucoma

meaning: Just can't see my butt going to that meeting.

[Chan790]

6. Bad coffee...

I use it as an excuse to skip meetings with my DM all the time. "Sorry Al, I sampled too much product at work and now I can't get off the can."

I love being a barista...sometimes. Not often though.

7. Covertly sabotage the person who is running or presenting.

That way, you are clear and none the worse for wear.

[Midlodemocrat]

Whoa. Apparently, I have the hiccups, too.

[Midlodemocrat]

8. Allergies. To meetings. I have them.

[LynneSin]

11. Claim you wanted to go but all the spots were taken up by minorities

That was Tom Delay's excuse for not going to Vietnam

[Bake]

12. You have to leave for an emergency root canal.

Or appendectomy. Either one.

Bake

[meegbear]

13. Prepare yourself for the next time ...

buy 2 bottles of ipecac. Try one at home to gauge your tolerance and time to take effect. Then bring the other to work, use it at the required time and ... VOILA! you're out of the meeting.

[skooooo]

14. you just got a client's / customer's call you need to attend to?

[Rambis]

15. I had a bad pint

must have been the 16th one- Wait leave the last part out;) sorry, most likely not quick enough so file that one away-

[Doc_Technical]
