What excuse have you used to skive of work.


Foolishly I asked my wife to phone up work and tell them I was sick when I wasnt, so she phoned the line manager and said "He's not coming into work today because he's a lazy bastard".


That incident coincided with the bog flushing escapade the night before.


What excuse have you used in the past, and would you trust someone else to lie for you.

Most sickies are artificial, anyway.


During the 5 Day Week the breakdown of sick days, in my experience, is as follows:


Monday: 31%

Tuesday:16%

Wednesday:14%

Thursday:13%

Friday: 27%


First Prize goes to...


The propensity is for a positive plethora of pains on a Monday or Friday.

Mikecg, I will try being nicer if you try being more intelligent.


This forum is being spoiled by vacuous school boy bantor. It feels like hearing a group of aggressive twelve year olds talking too loud on the upstairs of the bus. Really now. Don't believe we want to hear everything you think or find some other place to humiliate yourself.

You see DM this is where I think you have gone too far, how dare you try to dictate to anybody about their intelligence and the quality of theyre posts or what ever. is the forum now an exclusive club to alianate people who have a different idea about what humour is than you.


I dont care for what you say, your credibility is worthless, you are a bully and a hack who happens to write a blog that is tired weak and without doubt tediously unfunny.


You dont own the forum DM although you have been aggrovating it since it inception.

Sarcasm was just one of the services we once offered on this forum. Reading that - is that rebuttle? OHMYGOD. I don't know what your problem is but I bet it is hard to pronounce. Have you considered Omega 3 fish oils?

    • Sophie, I have to thank you for bringing me squarely into 2025.  I was aware of 4G/5G USB dongles for single computers, and of being able to use smartphones for tethering 4G/5G, but hadn't realised that the four mobile networks were now providing home hub/routers, effectively mimicking the cabled broadband suppliers.  I'd personally stick to calling the mobile networks 4G/5G rather than wifi, so as not to confuse them with the wifi that we use within home or from external wifi hotspots. 4G/5G is a whole diffferent, wide-area set of  networks, and uses its own distinct wavebands. So, when you're saying wi-fi, I assume you're actually referring to the wide-area networks, and that it's not a matter of just having poor connections within your home local area network, or a router which is deficient.   If any doubt, the best test will be with a computer connected directly to the router by cable; possibly  trying different locations as well. Which really leaves me with only one maybe useful thing to say.  :) The Which pages at https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/broadband/article/what-is-broadband/what-is-4g-broadband-aUWwk1O9J0cW look pretty useful and informative. They include local area quality of coverage maps for the four providers (including 5G user reports I think) , where they say (and I guess it too is pretty common knowledge): Our survey of the best and worst UK mobile networks found that the most common issues mobile customers have are constantly poor phone signal and continuous brief network dropouts – and in fact no network in our survey received a five star rating for network reliability. 
    • 5G has a shorter range and is worse at penetrating obstacles between you and the cell tower, try logging into the router and knocking it back to 4G (LTE) You also need to establish if the problem is WiFi or cellular. Change the WiFi from 5GHz to 2.4GHz and you will get better WiFi coverage within your house If your WiFi is fine and moving to 4G doesn't help then you might be in a dead spot. There's lots of fibre deployed in East Dulwich
    • Weve used EE for the past 6 years. We're next to Peckham Rye. It's consistent and we've never had any outages or technical issues. We watch live streams for football and suffer no lags or buffering.   All the best.
