  “hi boss I need to take a half day holiday on X date, I have to attend a speed awareness course”

  "Hey bob, can I swap a shift with you on X date, I’ll work your X Saturday. I’ve got to attend a speed awareness course "

  Or if you’re to chicken to tell the truth replace with dentist.

  It’s hardly rocket science.

    My work is not like that. Not all jobs do sick days. If I miss a day I delay a project and have to kill myself getting it back on track.

      Riiighhtt because you’re sooo busy and soooo important to your job that you can’t take a morning off. Speed awareness course is like 4 hours and you can do over video call. Get a fucking grip.

      Or, if you are genuinely so important and busy you must be paid a bomb, so just pay the fine, take the points, pay the bit extra on insurance. Job done.

      Or, here’s an idea. Don’t break the mother fucking law in the first place.
