Question by  Charlotte (76)

What is a good voice mail message to leave a human resource manager when you are calling in sick?

I want to call in sick tomorrow so that I can spend the day doing some much needed house cleaning, I am going to call prior to anyone getting into the office.

You are not required to state what is wrong if you are calling in sick. A simple message would be "This is ____. I will not be in today due to illness. Thank you. "

The key is not to sound like you faking being sick, so don't cough, don't purposely sound ill. Call early morning, and say that you have been up all night with stomach issues. That way you can be better the next day with no one questioning what happened to your cold, etc. Good luck.
