I faked sick all the time in high school. The second semester of my senior year (this past year) I faked sick almost every week because my schedule was so stressful

Usually I would just tell my mom I had a migraine since I do actually get them occasionally. Some days I would just straight up tell her I didn't feel like going to school, lol, and she would write me a note anyway.

I ended up with like ~25 missed days my senior year and ~18 each year before. Not all of them were faking sick, obviously. Half of them were from concerts/vacations/genuinely sick. My school went after people when they had more than 10 missed days in a year since it's state law but I was one of their top students so they never bothered me

Yes and both my parents would work in the mornings so they wouldn't be home to know I was lying

The time I worked at retail I pretended that I broke my finger so I got an "inability to work" for 2 months (with 100% payment). When I had to return cuz the flop doctor released me for work I simply quit after one week.

Never, idk why I'd want to.

I used to fake being sick every other week when I was in school I had so many "sick" days when in reality I rarely get sick but I was getting bullied and hated school so dont judge me

At least 4 times a year...

Of course. Faked being sick so I wouldn't have to go to school.

I wouldn't even need to do all that to skip a day of school. I would just tell my parents that the school is closed because of some holiday/teachers meeting/etc. and they would believe it.

Like once every other week just so I don't be bothered by people for stupid things.

No.

Not for school but for work I would just tell my boss I was burned out and needed a day, I didn't have to be sick, even then I would VPN in and check emails in case something terrible was going down.
