Embarrassed to mention loose motion to your boss? Netizens give wild and funny solutions
An individual turned to the internet for help and they did not disappoint. The Redditor wrote, “How do I ask for leave when I'm down with diarrhoea? I am not comfortable with asking for a leave mentioning the above reason. What's the possible way I can do so but also convey the message?”
Internet has the best response
One suggested simply informing the employer about being sick and revealing the diarrhoea only if pressed for details. Another sarcastically proposed sending a “sample” if further questioned. A different commenter dismissed the embarrassment, noting that diarrhoea is a normal condition and nothing to be ashamed of mentioning.
The humour escalated as one individual jokingly advised taking a picture of the evidence and emailing it as an attachment, claiming it would guarantee approval. Another suggested an extreme approach: making a mess right in front of the manager. Some responses mixed humour with practical advice, like offering vivid descriptions of the condition, such as telling the boss that the diarrhoea is “so bad you can wash your burger down with it” alongside well-wishing tips like hydrating with coconut water or ORS. Ending on a light note, one user proposed simply sitting silently for a while until the manager reluctantly granted leave.
