Sick, Hurt, Family Emergency....Certified Faker!

If you've caught an employee fibbing about where they were on their day off due to sickness, or even caught them online on the day when they couldn't even open their eyes due to a severe headache, then you will be relieved to know that this is becoming a growing trend amongst employees who play "sick". Playing around on the internet and posting messages on social networking sites during sick days, is a sure fire way that your employees can be caught in a lie. And you don't even have to spy on them, because the proof is going to be there indefinitely. If you've been awake for the last 2 years, you will know that social networking is exploding, and it's not even close to being a fad that will fade in the next century. The most popular (8)  joints are:

• Facebook
• Twitter
• LinkedIn
• Ning
• Myspace
• Plaxo
• Hi5
• Bebo

Now another issue regarding days off is a valid reason.  They will not only lie about not coming in, but they will also lie with proof.  I am talking about fake notes. Yes fake doctors notes and obituaries, just to get out of going to work. Here are a few websites who offer this service:

• www.jumptags.com
• www.phoneyexcuses.com
• www.myexcusedabsence.com
• www.thefakedoctorsnote.com
• www.bestfakedoctornotes.com
• www.scumdoctor.com

Hopefully you will never have to use any of these resources that I have provided for you here. But this is one blog post that you should keep in mind for your next faker.
