A true stoy,

I worked in a restaurant and this girl had been telling a bunch of us how she needed time off in a couple weeks, but the schedule had been made and she was looking for an excuse to tell the manager

Needless to say, she wasn't the brightest bulb so she came up with her grandfather was going to die in two weeks and she was going to need three days off for the funeral.

Our manager asked her how she knew her grandpa was going to be dying in two weeks and she was so flustered, she ran out of the restaurant crying
