  1. How about “I called an ambulance from work to take me here, but I waited in the waiting room for so long, I forgot what was wrong with me”, followed by “can I have a work note so I don’t have to go back tomorrow?”

  2. I have an even better one for you:

    ?I accidentally sat down on a pill bottle and it is stuck in my rectum.?

  3. Years ago as a paramedic responding to a respiratory distress call I arrived to hear “I have a hair in my throat”.

  4. Everytime I hear the words “baby’s daddy” I feel society crumble just a bit more…
