2. Calling out?
3. Calling off?

I say "calling in" a lot of the time. Calling in + whatever reason the boss will accept. It's mainly calling in sick, because I think "calling in lazy, tired and overworked" is a little too honest. (I'm from the Rocky Mountain region of the United States, where we all apparently have "western accents" and really really like the outdoors.)

Minnesota, USA. Usually just said taking PTO today. When my mom died, my boss was very supportive of the days I called in sad.

Illinois, and for sickness when calling in, you say your taking the day off, when you are telling others you took the day off it is called a sick day, when you are taking day off for just a day off you tell the boss, I need the day off, when telling others you had the day off it's refered to as just a day off.
