I was an hour and a half late for work today. They called me and woke me up at 8:30 ET, was supposed to be there 8😳 Now I have to act like I'm sick all day to give my excuse life. Whats the best excuse you ever used for being late? (not limited to late for work excuses)

A flat tyre always seems to work - just make sure you make your hands look a little dirty as if you had to change the tyre. As karma would have it, I had a real flat tyre once - pouring rain, cell phone when dead when calling roadside assistance, turned up 1 1/2 late.

You should have told 'em "a couple of guys who were upto no good - started making trouble in my neighbourhood...I got in one little fight, my mom got scared... and that's why I'm late for work"

I was late for hockey because a chick wanted to give me a hummer. I thought I was getting a truck!

"Sorry I was late for school, Sir. See, the thing was that on my way to school, I was attacked by a bowmann (*shudder* here to be more convincing) and it took ages to shake it off. It took away my English homwork in search of spelling mistakes... that's also the reason I don't have my homework btw."

I was 4 weeks into a dead end job that I hated. I really didn't want to go in, and remonstrated with myself for ages in bed, about whether or not to. I had to though, I needed the money. Eventually I turned in three hours late. When asked by the whip cracking bitch from hell. why I was late, I just turned round and said "Sorry, I couldn't find my trousers". 😛
