if you want a sickness that goes for a couple of days you are probably going to need a doctors certificate, so itll be difficult to fake. I dunno, most people just say the flu or a 'vomiting virus' cause apparently theres always one of those going around

"back pain" go to the doctors on the first day of desired holiday. Act like u are in heaps of pain, when they ask what happened say you were moving around your tv at home and u felt a sharp pain in your back and fell down.
He will check u out but find nothing wrong ofcourse...they then have to put it down as muscular so u basically get a few days off work free as backs are really hard to say you are lieing about.

if u need a docs certificate, just go to your doc and say you have diarrhoea and you feel sick cause of it. it's one they can't really prove you're lying about.

Most doctors are quite easy to get a doctors certificate off... It's really not that hard to get one (except if your G.P is House.)

If they question the frequency of your periods, just start using words like "ovaries" "fallopian tubes" "endometriosis" "heavy flow" and your boss (particularly male) will not ask anymore questions ever again hahahaha

Cold isn't a good one, because you usually take awhile to get over cold symptoms so they will wonder why you have no residual symptoms. I would probably go for gastro/food poisioning because nobody really wants to know about it.

Best thing is that for basically anything you say you can't get in trouble, ie me at Target, they refused to let me swap a shift they gave me on short notice that was on my birthday which I had asked not to be called in for and then I got dad to call in sick and they were shitty with me for.. umm... like the rest of my short career and I got the whole "Don't you hate it when people call in sick and they're not" with the evil eye from my manager and the assistant manager took pity on me thinking I didnt know what a sick day was and explained you should be sick to have one... so I claimed it ruined my birthday and got semi teary like it actually had ruined my birthday and she shut up...

Point being: they shouldnt be able to fire you but dont quote me on that (unless you show up on the big screen at the footy or cricket)

if ur casual they cant fire u for calling in sick
u can cancel ur shift at the last minute and they can cancel ur shift at the last minute
so they can stick it..and as a casual u dont even need a docs certifcate

Food poisoning.

Tell your doctor that you have really bad headaches and keep throwing up. He'll just tell you your headaches are caused by dehydration and write you a prescription.

If your boss asks questions, prepare some graphic responses so s/he'll never ask again. e.g. orange diarrhoea, greenish phlegm etc.

'I had temperature' and give them a doctor's certificate. They aren't hard to get.
