I'm in this situation where I've resigned from my organization and have to serve 1 1/2 months notice with my last day being a month from now. I have around 12 medical leaves remaining and need to utilize at least 3-4 in this time frame...but wondering what are your best reasons to stay at home and get paid?

Problem with me is I hardly make use of this as first of all, I am happy with work and also the fact that I suck at making excuses...my best is food poisoning but how many episodes of that can you have in a year? Advice I get from around is headache (super lame), gastric issues (in the morning? really?)....there's gotta be more!

I'm now at a point where I dont care even if my employer thinks I am making it up as I'm out and provided a better offer elsewhere....but I'd like to still keep them in the 'dark' rather than certain of my intent.

Please share.

How about having blue balls that need tending to?

Bad appendix.

day 1: feel sick, need to stay home
day 2: feel worse, need to stay home
day 3: feel even worse, go to doc - need surgery
day 4: recover from surgery

Sorry, I wasn't very clear. When I said 3-4 days I meant on separate days, they don't have to be at one go.

Some nice suggestions there, but the thing is I need the doc to believe me and give me the damn mc....many suggestions here are difficult to 'create'. For example, food poisoning and headaches don't leave much 'signs' so the doc has little choice but to hand you the letter.

A virus is a good one - what kind?
Pulled your back-cant move - this is good...I see 1 day mc here.
Throat infection - the doc won't see any signs
Chest infection - I'll need to cough like hell in the examination room?
Migraine - I've never had this before...what are the symptoms? I might use this.

Light flu or a bad cold will last 4 days. - True that, I wouldn't mind getting a flu but I dont fall sick easy.

Herpes flare up - Err....

I've just had a 120 mph head on car crash ,not able to move very much ,will be in touch in a week or three - A bit too hardcore..I'd need the hospital for this. And I DONT want visitors!

Bad appendix. - I ain't instigating and suffering through this for a few mc days mate!

How about having blue balls that need tending to? - Thx DD, best suggestion ever....

Claim to be of the Jedi religion and take a day off for Yoda's birthday, the anniversary of the defeat of the Empire, anniversary of Yoda's death and the anniversary of Hans Solo and Princess Leia getting hitched.
