    I'm quite sure I did. I have not called in ,on my job in about 3yrs. I try not to inconvenience anyone, if I can help it.

    Yes I did it when I was 17 working part time in a local shop. David Duchovny was in Edinburgh for a film premier and I was a HUGE X-File fan and wanted to go and try and see him, but I was due to work (4 stupid hours!). My mum told me "You only live once!" and she called my work told them I was ill and accompanied me on the train to Edinburgh. I ended up getting David's autograph and picture and more importantly I made a friend for life that day. I am glad I listened to my mum.

    When I had two jobs, I would sometimes have to call in to the one that paid less and tell them I was sick when my work schedules overlapped. But I technically wasn't getting OUT of work, I was calling in sick so I could GO to work.
