Have you ever "called in sick" to work when you weren't really sick?

Update:

&, if you'd like to elaborate telling me what your excuse is/was, that'd be great! Hi Lora - :-)! Answer carefully, responsibly, respectfully &thanks for a-playin'!

Update 2:

'& thanks', forgot to space them out - I'm 'OCD' that way...

Update 3:

Anonymous, you've answered it TWICE already; I only require/allow 1 answer per person - be advised... You gonna go for 3? RME SMH - Ya think that gives you a better chance of being chosen as 'b. a.'? :D!

    Yeah, but only because confession is good for the soul.

    No. But I’ve certainly thought about it.

    Yes, I needed a mental health day a few times.

    Nope. I've pretended to be sick when I was in school though.

    No, because every time I've called in sick I've at the very least been sick of going to work. That's what we with sick days call a "mental health day."

    Yes, a few times over the years.

    Yeah, I did that twice. I've only called in 3 times in 5 years so I give myself a pass.
