    Sure as a kid I sometimes faked being ill. It never worked mom would take me to the dr and it would ruin my plan.

    I don't have to lie. I am one of those people who seem to have a cold all the time! I rarely call in sick, though.

    I lied about being sick a lot to stay home from school..... but once I got to high school and had a car, I just became sick and ditched. In my professional days, for my last job, I called in sick a few times a year when I wasn't but I still had the most sick time in my department. When it came to that company, the place was a compete joke, the fat-cats who made a lot of money were always 'working at home.'

    Come on, you know you've done it (made up a lie, and called in sick). Probably when you were younger, and had that job you really didn't care about. Im sure everyone is guilty of doing this at least once in their lives.

    If I feel sick then I feel sick, I don't like to be sick so why fake it.

    If ever there's a time when I absolutely cannot get out of something to go do something that is worthy, or just plain necessary to do and whatever is in the way of me doing it? You bet I'll lie. And have.

    BAD KARMA, if you lie about this you will eventually lay on your bed suffering from the worst stomach flu and wonder the whole time if it's because of that one time you told your neighbor you were sick when they asked you to get their trash cans while they were away...NOT NICE!!!!

    There is nothing wrong with saying you are sick when you actually are sick. The misconception is that, if I say I am sick, people would avoid my company, so, I lie. But who am I lying to? Them or myself? I believe both. I lie to them by telling an untruth and I lie to myself believing that people would stay with me because I told a lie. Lying is a no win action.

    I was thinking of lying when calling in sick...which technically I have never done.  Now, was I really all that sick technically each time I called in. NO.  But, then again, there is a lot to say about the use of a mental health day in the prevention of potential supervisor homicides.  In retrospect, it may have been a good addition to the contracts of Postal Workers (and a whole lot more).

    People don't realize it but they lie about this all the time. Joe asks "how are you today Jim?" Jim states "I'm great, how about you?" Joe says "fine, well take care..." both shake hands and leave. In reality Jim has cancer and Joe is so depressed he didn't want to leave the house this morning. When we ask people how they are many times we really don't care or have/ make time to listen.

    People will "play sick" for any number of reasons.They will also tell their loved ones they "feel fine" so they won't worry or make them see a Doctor.

    Given I've suffered from intense migraine headaches since I was a child, it was easy to utilize this as an excuse if I really wanted to get out of going to school or some other unpleasant obligation. As an adult, I've tried to minimize doing this, but occasionally it is something I'll "white lie" about if the anticipated activity or event is something I deem too onerous.

    Physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally, or just twisted sexually? Guess which three of the five.

    Okay, so I think this is the only thing on the list that I lie about more than I should ha! But honestly, I was sick even if it was all in my head. Stress makes me physically sick, what can I say?
