    Question Off sick

    Hello there,

    What is the verb that is used with 'off sick'


    ie: John called in off sick today / John called to say that he was off sick/ John called off sick / John went off sick?


    I don't know how to compose the sentence.


    Thank you

    Either "he called in sick" or "he is off sick" or "he is out sick"..
