It sounds like he took the WHOLE day off for an interview. That was the foolish part. You see, SICK is a whole day excuse. An appointment can cover leaving for a short while. |

How about be upfront and tell the truth...he is only temping and they are bound to know he is looking for another job. |

Should go on pretending he has not yet felt well and on friday call in sick again then go arrange with your Doctor to get a letter that you actually saw him as the symptoms persisted.All the best |

Have him go to work and then you call there and say that there is an emergency and he needs to leave. |

Truth is good. Most employers understand this with temps. If they don't then they don't deserve your mate's efforts at work.
Of course if he is not a temp but a contract employee, it might be different. Depends on how long the contract still has to run. |

If he really hates it that much, he shouldn't care anyway! Try a relative in hospital?? |

say he has to go to a funeral or a wedding, they are not going to stop a man going to a relatives funeral or wedding!! if he chooses the wedding, say he is the best man, so he can't not go!
is this OK! |

depends what time the interviews are its a temp job tell them hes going away for a weekend, it is only temp job and they might get rid of him anyways for taking time off, usual reason for sacking a temp is they are not pulling their weight, ask if he can take the day off for personal reasons.. if he hates it so much why doesnt he just get another temp job? seems daft as that is what it is, a temporary job? good luck! |

Tell him to stick with the same excuse as he had last week, it will look better and more convincing, if he uses too many different excuses they will know he's pulling a fast one.. |

i would tell them that you have an appointment with the bank manager about a mortgage or something, that he has been waiting ages and it is the only time they oculd arrange an appointment should work! |

get someone to ring him whilst he's at work and then he can leave. |

Could he not have a leak in his house? Or possibly an attempted break in, broken window and all that! Possibly a small fire? |

If the interviews are later in the day and he'd have enough time to change clothes (if needed) and get to the interviews you should have him go to work, and then have someone call him up.. doesn't matter what they say on the other end, he just has to be a good actor, look shocked and stammer a bit and then say "I'm on my way!!".. then he can either tell them family emergency or make something up about a relative - his mum, a baby dying.. whatever, they'll be too sympathetic to question it.
For a less drastic approach can he tell them he needs some kind of tests at hospital and ask to reschedule his day, ie work a later shift, work on Saturday instead.. that way it will appear he is being accomodating and they will perhaps work around it til he can get a new job and be shot of them. |
