#3: “I Can’t Go Out, I’m Sick”

Let’s be honest for a second. We’ve all called out sick from work or school at least once in our lifetime. If you haven’t, well, this questionable hack isn’t for you. If you’re looking for a new and improved way to sell your boss or teacher on your next fake illness, keep reading because you’re in luck. 

If you have to call into work for your sick day, make sure you sound extra congested. You have to really sell it. The way you can do this is by lying on your back while hanging your head over the edge of your bed. All the blood will rush to your head. You will inevitably sound congested. Your boss or teacher will immediately feel bad for you and insist you stay home. Score.
