Pronunciation: call-ing-in-sh-tik

Sentence: Avery was a diligent worker with a good sense of responsibility, but when her college roommates showed up on Thursday for a weekend of fun, she couldn't resist pulling the old callinginshtick. After trolling through plausible sudden and severe illnesses in her head, Avery settled on a urinary tract infection, figuring the gross-out factor would preclude her boss from exposing her callinginshtick. She was right.

Etymology: Calling in sick, changed to incorporate shtick, a Yiddish word that means a comic theme or gimmick.
