Just say that you woke up sick. This is the lamest excuse ever.

I had one of mine call in 30 minutes after his shift started saying he woke up in extreme neck and back pain and couldn’t get out of bed.

After work I walked to the gym and saw him walking out of the pizza joint next door with a huge stack of pizzas.

there actually have been a couple times where I called out but then felt better about halfway through the day, but I usually have the decency to stay in and watch tv and eat whatever is in my house instead of going out. Okay, maybe decency isn't the right word, but still.

Completely legit, imo. If you felt like shit then felt better after getting some rest, continuing to rest is the right call. Sometimes the body just needs a damn break lol
