Sick Day Text Generator
Create a polite message to send to your manager, teacher, or workgroup. Customise tone, reason and length — then copy in one tap.
What should I say when calling in sick?
Keep it short, polite, and to the point — state that you're unwell, roughly when you expect to be back if you know, and who's covering anything urgent. You don't need to share full medical details.
Do I have to explain why I'm sick?
No. It's completely normal to just say you're unwell without going into specifics. Choose "Prefer not to say" as the reason and the generator will keep it vague and professional.
Is it OK to text instead of calling in sick?
Many workplaces are fine with a text or chat message, especially first thing in the morning. If your workplace expects a phone call, use the generated message as a script instead.
How do I tell my manager I'm taking a mental health day?
Choose "Mental health day" as the reason — the generator will phrase it professionally without requiring extra detail. You're not obligated to justify a mental health day any differently than physical illness.
Will this store or share what I type?
No. Every message is generated entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to our servers or stored anywhere. See our Privacy Policy for details.
