faux flu
When a person behaves as if they are sick to give the appearance of having the flu. In reality this person is not sick but wants others to think they are for some sort of personal gain.
She: Wow, isn't our coworker really sick today, she sounds terrible.
He: Oh no, she is fine.
She: I don't think so did you hear her cough?
He: Yes I did, but it's just the faux flu. She has a big party to attend tonight and is setting up for a sick day tomorrow.
He: Oh no, she is fine.
She: I don't think so did you hear her cough?
