哥伦比亚广播公司:员工请假本来是件很正常的事情.但是一项调查显示,如今员工请假的理由越来越"奇葩".

CBS News: a new survey from CareerBuilder shows employers hear plenty of dumb excuses for missing work nowadays. The company interviewed workers and human resource professionals across the country recently to get more details about how and why people call in sick.

The survey showed that plenty of people are faking it. Some 28 percent of workers called in sick over the last year when they were feeling just fine. That's down from 32 percent the previous year.

Why are they playing hooky? Nearly a third just didn't feel like going in. Some 29 percent said they wanted to relax for the day, 21 percent had a doctor's appointment and 19 percent wanted to get more sleep. About 11 percent said bad weather kept them home.
