He called his boss and got a little carried away, as he told his boss his mom died. They gave him the rest of the week off, sent him some flowers and gift cards for restaurants, as he shouldn't have to cook at a time like this. He had to call his mom and tell her never to call his work. He left the job a few months later because he was paranoid someone would find out.

"I thought your mom died in October!!"
"Well, that was my stepmom"
"But your stepmom died in September"
"That was my dad's third wife"
