Today, my coworker called in to say that he couldn't make it to work today because he was in a coma and asked if I could cover his shift. This isn't the first time he's tried to use this excuse. FML

Surely your manager or whoever isn't dumb enough to fall for someone saying they're in a coma? Like if they're the ones calling in I mean?

Seems like your coworker is a special kind of stupid.

I feel like this is a case of not understanding the definition of coma

How does this coworker still have their job after already using this excuse?

wow he's an idiot considering it makes no sense for him to be calling you if he's supposedly in a coma *rolls eyes*

Well... Yeah, that's the point of the FML *over-exaggerated eye roll*

"I can't make it into work today. I was in horrible a plane crash. My whole family is dead, and I'm a vegetable. See you tomorrow."

I like your username, I wanna ask the same question to people sometimes.

thats where you say ok! more hours for you which means more money

its kinda insulting to people who are actually in comas. he sounds like a dick tbh

I don't think any comatose people will take offense to his lame excuse.

Yeah, they're not exactly able to see this 'offensive' excuse. Maybe to family or friends who know someone in a coma.
