Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is now available, worldwide, on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, which means a ton of gamers will not be getting any sleep tonight. And thus, consequentally, a ton of Call of Duty players will be skipping school and classes tomorrow/calling in sick to work tomorrow. That said, if you’re out of sick days or need a legal absence from school, well Activision has you covered. Today, it shared an official note to help you get out of your responsibilities so you can spend all day yelling at players in lobbies and grinding out those ranks.

“To whom it may concern, I am writing to advise (blank) is to be relieved of all current duties commencing 0001 hours on October 25,” reads the note. “The circumstances of their absence are of a highly classified nature, hence should not be subject to questioning due the sensitivity of activities during the aforementioned time period.”

Of course, there’s about zero chance this will work, which is why you call out ahead of time.
