What's the craziest excuse you've heard for being late for work?

A nationwide online survey of managers revealed that more than a third have had to fire someone for being late.

The survey lists the most memorable excuses for being late from employees.

One excuse came from a woman who said she had dropped her purse with the keys in it down a vending machine.

Another employee told his boss his angry wife froze his truck keys in a glass of water.
