Just stop making excuses like ;\n\nI'll do it later.\nI'll just watch this TV show.\nI'll make a cup of coffee first to get me prepared.\n\nSit down, open your books and start writing or typing.\n\nDo it now !\n\nNo.....Do it now !

Do not call and tell a lie to get out of work. Believe me an employer knows when a lie is being told, they have heard many of them. I would call them early and see if they can find someone to work for you. Sometimes there are other employees who will gladly pick up the hours.  But be prepared to work if there is no one to cover your shift. Do what is right.

Dress up formally and wear a little makeup, if necessary, to feel confident.\nMake a timetable and stick to it.\nAllow yourself breaks and keep your home and office life separate.\nIt is now how long you can work everyday but how much you achieve in the hours you work.

Take the stairs instead of the elevator.  Park far away in the parking lot so that you have to walk farther.  Walk over to someone's desk when you need to talk to them rather than calling or emailing.  Go for a walk during your lunch break.

1.  Be absolutely certain you have a solid job offer, in writing, before you give notice.\n2.  Prepare a list of your current projects that will need to be handed off to someone else.  Also list things you can complete before you want to leave.\n3.  Stealthily remove every personal possession from your workplace that you couldn't live without.  Completely erase any personal email or files from your computer -- don't just put them in the "recycle" bin.\n4.  Ask your boss for a meeting, give him a written resignation letter, saying only that you're leaving the company to advance your career.  NEVER, NEVER, NEVER say anything negative to him about the job, the company, or any co-workers.  \n5.  Propose a date (at least 2 weeks) for your final day, but be prepared to be walked to the door.  Be polite and positive no matter what sort of shit he gives you.\n6.  If asked to participate in an exit interview, answer with vague generalities and no specific complaints.\n7.  Thank him for being such a good boss.\n\nOne day you'll want to use him as a reference, or that company.  Imagine what they'd say about you -- and a little self-control can do wonders.  Making a scene, saying you hate him or the job, or dumping on co-workers will come back to haunt you.

You say you are willing to wait until "we are not swamped" so why would you need an "excuse"?\n\nIf it is actually that hard to get time off, just tell your supervisor that you have been unusually stressed lately and you need to have a day to just get away and calm down.  Ask about a week ahead of time so it doesn't come as surprise to your sup.\nIf your sup is decent he/she will realize you are being thoughtful and responsible by asking ahead of time and should honor that.        \nAt least you will have the knowledge that you were honest.  \n\nA sup who isn't responsive to the needs of the workers will soon find they have a hostile working class to deal with and that will come back to bite in the arse.\n\nWhere I worked, we had one boss who thought he had to act like a dictator to control everyone. When he finally PO'd everyone to the point they hated him we started watching for ways to get rid of him. Eventually the attendance and work output showed on paper that he wasn't getting the job done and they moved him to another area. A friend and I had a talk with him before he was moved and we did our best to make him realize he caused all of the problems in our area.  He didn't listen. He acted the same in the new area and the people there were a lot meaner than us. They sabotaged everything he did and made his bosses know why things went downhill in their area. The company sent him to some training school to readjust his technique and then transferred him to a different facility where no one knew him.  We heard the people there slashed the tires on his car!! After that I don't know what happened. I don't condone the slashing but I do understand the frustration of an unreasonable boss. They are actually counter productive.\n\nGood luck and remember, honesty always pays good dividends...

Ask nicely, and offer to make the time up; work through lunch, come in early, stay late another night.  It helps, of course, if you've been a excellent employee.

Walk around a lot looking like you have somewhere important to go. I actually used to do that a lot when I worked for IBM. It really works and ppl think you are SOOO busy all the time. heeheh

Some people may say " Kiss butt to go up the ladder "... I say just be the best businessperson you can be... Show up on time, maybe even early, dont take many sick and vacation days, and whatever you do, DO NOT go over your lunch break... That helps a lot I found out. lol
