Excuses. We all make them, and not one of us likes to hear them.
This is the first post in our "excuses" category. We're posting only excuses that we have actually heard and given ourselves. These are real, folks. And you won't believe what awaits you. Actually, you probably will, because we're willing to bet you've heard some pretty amazing excuses yourself.
In the near future, we hope to add a submission form where you can tell us the most amazing excuses you've ever heard for late deliveries.
Our only concern is that we won't ever be able to top this one because, well...it's pretty epic. This excuse came not in response to an inquiry about a late delivery, but as part of an apology from a translator who had incorrectly submitted his/her time sheet incorrectly several times in a row.
"I try to stay close to the earth and in my body, but sometimes gravity fails me."
Hold on tight, dear translator. We don't want to lose your exceptional linguistic skills to the cosmos.
