Call out sick

A good way to get yourself fired. Well, that is if you do it only to have fun somewhere, such as the beach.

Cesar: Hey, did you hear that Carl did something that was not only really dumb but also completely selfish?
Becky: I did not, what did he exactly do?
Cesar: Well, he decided to call out sick, but only to go have fun somewhere.
Becky: That is so selfish of him, was he allowed to keep his job?
Cesar: No, he got fired.
Becky: Good, idiots like that deserve to get the boot.
