You’ve got the blamer, the gifter, the Judas, the reverse psychologist and many, many more.

We’ve all been late for work in our time, but everyone has their own way of explaining away their tardiness.

From the bus breaking down, to the queue in the coffee shop, to the dog that ate the Luas card, excuses are many and they are varied.

As usual, they save the best snippet for last. Enter ‘Full Disclosure’: “I’m late. I’m late because I overslept. I was drinking last night, and couldn’t hear my alarm clock. It went again a second time, and I intentionally turned it off, went back asleep again knowing full well that it would make me late.

“Any questions?”
