This is sort of half lie/half ruse, but it did the trick at the time. I wanted to go to Reading Rock festival, which started on a Friday, but my boss had already told my friends that they couldn't have the day off.

As phoning in sick from the festival wasn't really an option (due to the noise), the previous evening, I wrote out a note saying I was ill and went on my happy way to the festival. My mum faxed the note across to work on the Friday morning! Festival attended, and my boss non the wiser (until I told him about it once I left the company)
