I have used this excuse to great response in even strict no truancy work environments. This reason is... No reason. Tell them something very personal has come up, you would like to explain but simply cannot. Ask them to trust you- that these are VERY extenuating (sp?) circumstances, and that although your job is important to you, some things are more important than work. Leave it at that; they can draw their own conclusions, and will likely think of an excuse that would be legitimate to them, but that you wouldn't have thought of.

Definately steer clear of the ill grandmother. Stale.

Seriously though, I wouldn't use the "my grandmother is dying" line--it's too common. Instead, just ask for some personal time. Maybe your long-distance girlfriend is flying in from Vermont, or your Dad--whom you haven't seen for a while--is coming into town for a couple days. Best of luck with the interview.

I'd go wit de chickens too.
