[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 2224249, member: 14176"] In my Local we have what is termed a "no fault attendance policy", with no form of compensated sick pay. This means that no matter what the reason, it's an occurrence and we don't get paid. We are in compliance as long as we don't have more than 6 occurrences in the previous 9 months. It is for this reason that I don't give them an excuse when I take myself out of service. I simply make the call, state that I am taking myself out, and there is no further discussion. There are those who need to feel validated with a "good excuse", but I'm not one of them. Also, be careful to not put yourself in a "trick bag" with a made up excuse that could land you in a scenario that could be construed as dishonesty. [/QUOTE]
