By faking dreadful symptoms and acting better than most Oscar winners, she was able to fool her boss into believing she was at death's doorstep and highly infectious. She definitely put the "con" in contagious. After she had set the stage, she flu off to exotic locales and enjoyed an expediadotcon vacation. One of these days, her boss would wise up and figure out that when Typhoid Mary came back from these illnesses, she had a tan. When that happened, she'd lose her job and she would only be able to afford to vacation in Puerto Backyardo!

Pronunciation: kol/i/to/sis

Sentence: The weekend was just too short and the beach too perfect. Though it was the middle of October, the sun was hot, and the surf was up. Bianca decided there was no way she was going to drive back into the city. Instead, she planned on coming down with a really good case of callitosis. Not only was she going to take Monday off, but she planned to let her boss know this bout was so bad, she would not only be out until Thursday, BUT would most probably show up with a bad case of skin discoloration from the antibiotics the doctor had prescribed.

Etymology: call: The dreaded "calling in sick" phone call. osis: suffix-affected with, condition, abnormal process.
