Reminds me of something I read once. If you want to get out of work. Like you're at work, and you really really don't want to be there. You can get out with 4 words. You swallow your pride, walk into your bosses office, and proclaim "I shit my pants"

You will have the rest of the day off.

Pro move is to shit your pants so you don't even have to lie about it.

I just told my boss that I had to leave, offering no explanation, and he said "OK." He didn't need to know that I shit my pants. Maybe he inferred it.
