My friend had to save himself from getting fired so he had to find all means to justify his going on leave without permission. Thinking he could be redeemed if he presented a doctors note template to his employer, he downloaded them from a website. He asked me to look over the notes if they appeared good enough and genuine.

I examined the notes and found some loopholes such as the signature of the doctor, the complete address of the physician, and the description of the illness that my friend was supposedly in. Indeed every small detail must be taken into consideration before finally printing the notes. And since the signature must be original, he also had me sign the document and I tried my best for the document to look freshly signed by a doctor.

One thing that held back my friend from getting real doctors notes from his own doctor was that the latter was out of the country and could not give my friend the certification he needed.

Being a vegetarian means that one cannot enjoy eating poultry but at least one can enjoy poultry jokes. Vegetarians vary in type and sometimes it can get a little confusing. There are those who do not touch any animal products – meat, poultry or seafood and there are those who will eat white meat – fish, chicken and consume, eggs, milk or cheese, then those who will consume milk and eggs only, and not touch any meat. For those who choose to become vegetarian, it seems to everyone else that they have made quite a sacrifice to give up the pleasure of enjoying meat products. It is quite difficult to imagine not being able to enjoy a beef burger or barbecued ribs or some roast chicken. What would be even more difficult would be not being able to eat these dishes while everyone else around you is digging in. It would be easier if one becomes a vegetarian from a young age then you wouldn’t know what you are missing.
