‘Train had a flat tire’: 15 Hilariously bad excuses for arriving late to a work meeting – FAIL Blog

Rich_27-

One of our directors was removed.

He’s been on gardening leave for around a month and I asked my boss why he was fired, quit or made redundant

She said he has been pulled up on things he’s been saying over and over again but the straw that broke the camels back was, he was late to a meeting which consisted of heads of property and the top brass of the business, apparently he walked in and said “sorry I’m late, more problems with the trains as usual, I mean, say what you like about the 1940s Germans, at least their trains ran on schedule without missing a heartbeat”.

Apparently the room fell silent.
