calling off

Reporting your impending absence from work to your employer or supervisor without bothering to come up with an excuse. It's not like they're going to believe your obvious lie anyway.

Yeah, Mr. Bossman, I'm gonna be calling off today.

Calling off Doug

When you aren't sick or have any emergency, but you still don't want to go to work.

callin’offscopy

Wes “couldn’t” make it in today. He has an emergency callin’offscopy scheduled.
