Remember the times we faked being sick so we can sleep in? Yeah, most of us grew out of that phase but this story makes us regret it a little.
Recently, a Twitter user shared a clip of himself fainting at work one day… and in the caption, he said that it was all ACTING!
He was 18 at the time the video was taken and wasn’t feeling good to be at work.
So, he ensured that his manager was there to see him faint and guess what? It worked!

People flooded his tweet asking him what happened next and he patiently explained. First, everyone at his workplace believed that he fainted. He only confessed to his manager a year and a half later… probably because he felt bad (or maybe he’d grown out of that phase).
He even gave people pro-tips on how to pull the stunt off successfully. Well, being a method actor helps.

Oh, he also explained why he couldn’t do things like that anymore… He’s now self-employed, which means he’s the one who’d suffer if he took leave.
Have you done anything like this to get off work?
