I used to do that all the time. I hated my job, my X wanted to do stuff when i was getting ready for work. So id call in and id enjoy the day off. Bosses would always try to convince you to come in "oh, so your sick, well do you think you could tough it out?" "Oh no, im just not feeling good at all, id do more harm than good"... Etc. Eventually my bosses gave up trying to convince me and would just accept that i wasnt go to show up if i called. So i had some fun with it. My best "im sick" was; "yeah i cant come in, im in a coma." After a little period of silence she said, "well feel better".
