best excuse to the boss for missing work

I ran across this video while looking at some of the Doubliners vids on youtube.  They did a lot of great Irish folk songs/ ballads starting in the early sixties.  Song is from a time when most work was done by hand (and without OSHA in existence LOL)  If you move forward on the video  to 28:40, you should find the song.  It's about 3 minutes long and I thought well worth the time it took to hear it.  Here is the link (I hope)    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyBZl5qwQ_Q   enjoy,  Jim Chuk

Jim,

The best excuse to the boss for being late that I ever heard was from my fellow toolmaker apprentice when we were in our early 20's - He said, "The reason I am late is because I didn't get started in time to finish on time to get dressed and get to work on time." The boss excused him! :lol: And, I think his first son was born about 9 months later!!
