I lied to my boss about my Cancer diagnosis to get more days of.

I’ve been having a tough time at work. I got Covid in August and still haven’t shaken it. I’ve missed a lot of days and I’m terrified of getting fired. So the last time I called out I told my boss I was diagnosed with Cancer. She asked me what kind and I panicked and said it was in my mouth. Her father had throat cancer a few years ago so now I feel like an asshole. If I get caught I’m fucked<br><br>EDIT: Wow didn’t expect this blow up. It was an impulsive lie that I told because I’m terrified of getting fired. I’ve been using all my sick and vacation days just to stay home and rest and she’s been getting in my ass about it. I know it was wrong to lie. And I know it was worse to lie about a serious illness. And f**g a**hole for saying that anyone who gets cancer deserves it. Everyone makes mistakes in life. And everyone deserves a chance to make it right.
