How to Call in Sick

Morning.

You all right?

No, I don't feel great today.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I'm calling in sick.

What? No. No. Hang on.

Okay. No. No. What are you going to say, man?

You need a plan to call in sick.

I'm going to say I'm sick.

You can't say I'm sick.

No one's going to believe that.

It's the truth.

It doesn't matter if it's the truth.

Genuinely sick people, they don't get the day off

Because the fakers

have raised the bar. They're just hamming it up all the time.

If you want the day off

you have to pretend like you're dying.

But that's ridiculous. It's not.

I'm not lying. Okay, fine.

Yeah.

Do it your way. Uh-huh.

I will.

Here you go. It's ringing.

What?

It's a local supermarket. Call in sick. Do it your way.

Go.

Hello. Hello.

Hello.

Uh, yes. Hello. I won't be coming in to work today.

I'm sick.

Well, you don't sound sick.

Well, I'm genuinely sick.

You better get your arse in here now.

But I'm sick.

Who is this?

It's Gerald. And you sound like a horrible man.

Oh god. I hope there's not an actual Gerald who works there.

Can we just do it my way?

Yeah. Okay, fine.

All right, then. Remember, you have to sound

like you're dying.

Hello. Hello

Gerald?

It's Gerald.

Everything okay?

No, I don't feel well.

What's wrong?

I'm dying.

What?

I

Well, I'm not dying I mean, what I mean is

I'm not feeling very well.

Oh

Very horrific.

Oh, it's terrible. There's

diarrhea

everywhere.

Oh

There's vomiting from my mouth.

There's

blood everywhere.

Blood?

Not everywhere just

You got to go to the hospital.

Some place internally mostly.

I really think you should go to the hospital Gerry.

Possibly a nose bleed

Right?

I think tests might be advisable.

I think they're getting tests.

Sure.

There's no tests at the moment, but they're

they're saying they may need tests.

Well, if there's anything we can do.

Um, well, I just want to say I'm really sorry.

For what?

But I won't be able to come in today because I'm sick.

Oh, of course not. That's that's no problem.

It's only choir practice.

Oh, thank you so much.

Send us a text next time

Choir practice?

Yeah, we're doing Les Mis
