He hasn’t got a leg to stand on, time to look elsewhere.

I once said I was too sick to come in (was on last dose of antibiotics) to my old Woolies job (about 6 years ago now) so they said I didn't have to come in.

I then felt better that night so went out with friends, only to bump into my manager and assistant manager at the bar

They didn't mind thankfully, and my boss even told me to "shut the **** up and carry on drinking!"

OT quick...
What does this new meme 'Eggface' actually mean? I'm out of the loop - urban dictionary doesn't have it

britboy4321 · 29 Dec 2009 at 16:31

'You've got egg on your face' is a (very) old expression which means you have embarressed yourself / made a fool of yourself.

Eggface is a shorthand way of writing it

The 'I got sacked from Macdonalds and my manager called me 'Eggface' thread? If so -- yes it's this exact context!!

He is the one at fault. Lying to your boss and being stupid enough to get caught is a bad thing.

Fixed!

Not that I'm condoning "sickies" but if you're gonna pull one, don't go out in public in that way.

No, that was just a very strange insult, nothing to do with making the guy making a fool of himself.

Eggface!

I feel sorry for eggface there. But I guess the profanity some can't handle, which is understandable.
