1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: Who's excited to go to work today? Yeah, the Jewel Show.

2
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: Anybody who's super excited to be going to work today?

3
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 2: Okay, that sounds about Yeah.

4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: I asked the question because we all call out sick

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 1: from time to time, and there's a trend going viral

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: of people sharing the most ridiculous reasons that they've called

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 1: in to miswork. It sounded so fake their bosses didn't

8
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 1: believe them, but they were actually real.

9
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: Oh, we'll go over and.

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: Next so you can pull over to the side of

11
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: the road and wait to hear some minspos so you

12
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: can call into your job and be like, nah, not today, Satan.

13
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: Right after this, it's the Jewel Show.

14
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: I got my finger bit by a squirrel while tossing

15
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: a coffee cup into a parking garage trash can and

16
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: had to call in sick to work.

17
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: My boss didn't believe me. It's the Jewel Show. You imagine.

18
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 2: I feel like.

19
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: That's a text message we got in at four one

20
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: oh six to one because there's a trend going viral

21
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: of people sharing the reasons they had to call out

22
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: for work that were so crazy that their boss didn't

23
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: believe them. They weren't actually fake. Which sucks because you

24
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: know when you call into work when you're feeling fine

25
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: and you just want to take the day off, it's

26
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: always stressful, right, You're like, they're gonna know them lying,

27
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: But when you actually have to call in sick and

28
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 1: it's a ridiculous excuse, like a squirrel bit my fingertip.

29
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 3: Do you even say that? Are you panicked or are

30
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 3: you matter of fact saying well, I.

31
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: Won't be in today my finger I would rather just

32
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: make up something else. I'd be like, Man, I got

33
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: a cold. I'm not telling anybody that a squirrel attacked

34
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: me while I was throwing away a coffee cup.

35
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: I remember the viral video of that kid.

36
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, text in four to one oh six one.

37
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: Have you had to call in sick to work for

38
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: a ridiculous reason? And we'll go over some of the

39
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: top responses right now from this trend. One says I

40
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 1: was once late to work because I was glued into

41
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: my apartment.

42
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: Oh whoa.

43
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: They replaced the carpet in the common hallway overnight and

44
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: we're a little too enthusiastic with the glue by my door.

45
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: I had to wait until maintenance arrived at eight pm.

46
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: They were glued inside their apartment all day long, and

47
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: their boss didn't believe them that they were glued in.

48
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: Guys, I won't be here tomorrow. I'm going to be

49
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 2: glued in my house.

50
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: If you want to call him sick to work with

51
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: insfell for you, just tell me you got glued into

52
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 1: your apartment all day. Another person said that my grandparents

53
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: had a medical emergency years ago where one got stuck

54
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: on the toilet and the other tried to help, and

55
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: then they both fell, and I called my employer, but

56
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: my employer didn't believe me because it sounded like an

57
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: snl skit.

58
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 2: They fell and they can't get out. That's life when

59
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: you get older man trying to help someone off the toilet.

60
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: Because they can't get off the toilet, and you both fall,

61
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: and now your grandkid has to call in sick to

62
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: work for.

63
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 4: I feel like anything adage with grandparents. That's like a

64
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 4: free beat, like yes.

65
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: Take off work like old.

66
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: Someone else said they worked in retail fifteen years ago

67
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: and a guy called in sick to say he had

68
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 1: a nightmare and didn't think he'd be able to go

69
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: back to sleep.

70
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: And come in to work five hours later.

71
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 3: He was planning ahead, thinking smart. My nephew will not

72
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 3: go to school on nights that he has nightmares too. Really, yeah,

73
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 3: I mean he's five, he needs to sleep.

74
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: We're going over some of the most ridiculous reasons that

75
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: people have called in sick to work that were actually true,

76
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: but their bosses didn't believe that. One says I was

77
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: running a shift and had a girl call in six

78
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: saying she was too distraught to work because Zane had

79
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: left one direction.

80
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 4: Oh now, I feel like that was kind of like, well,

81
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 4: my grandma really did pass. I ended up crying into work,

82
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 4: being like, hey, like, I can't come in. My boss

83
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 4: did not believe me, like fully, and I was bawling

84
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 4: on the phone.

85
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 2: And I'm like, I didn't you at that? No, And

86
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: she was like, which way, I can't hear you. What

87
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 2: are you saying? So are you coming into work? Like

88
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: I don't understand what you're doing right now. I was like, no,

89
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 2: I'm not coming in right now, and she just oh, okay.

90
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: He was like thanks, I'm fine, Thanks for asking.

91
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, my family will be okay. Said what this person said?

92
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 2: They said I had to call in one time because

93
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: my stairs were gone. What drugs were they on.

94
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: He says, of course it was a huge violation by

95
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: the condo, but they had no way out of their

96
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: second story. I'm sorry that somehow the condo removed the

97
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: stairs overnight, it says, I want that happened to me?

98
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: Said Their boss demanded photos to show proof that they

99
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: had no stairs to get out of their place.

100
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 3: Well, that is a little questionable. I don't think I

101
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: believe that either. I know, I feel like, did you

102
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 3: not go to sleep yet?

103
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: Like?

104
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 2: Is this the party continued?

105
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: Or what?

106
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 2: You have a ladder something the rope suah.

107
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: Someone once said, I once had an employee call to

108
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: say they'd be late because a plane hit their car.

109
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: Oh what turns out they lived next to a small

110
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: private airfield and a drunk pilot was coming into the

111
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: land and mistook the road for the open runway.

112
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 4: What, oh my gosh, how do you mistake that there's

113
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 4: cars on the road there's nothing on a runway?

114
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 2: And somebody didn't believe that that's too specific? Right, fake?

115
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, the more specific you got with I'd be like, okay, yeah,

116
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: you're cool, honestly not lying.

117
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: If it was just a cough, I might question it,

118
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: right right.

119
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 1: Another person said they had to call in sick to

120
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 1: work because they dropped a frozen turkey on their bare foot.

121
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 2: Hey man, I've ever done that and that? Have you

122
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: done that?

123
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 4: Yes, I was still walking and it was fine, but

124
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 4: it hurts my whole hole in black.

125
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: Another person said they had to call in sick to

126
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: work once because they got fake nails for the first

127
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: time for a wedding, and they were in the shower

128
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: exfoliating their face and they stuck one of the fake

129
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: nails up their nose on accident and sliced their nose

130
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: and it was bleeding a tone, and then from that

131
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: moment on they were called Edward scissorhands at work for

132
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: the rest of the time they worked there.

133
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 2: Yes, rightfully, so
