This topic has become much more entertaining since I last checked it. I'll have to teeter my word usage on the edge of the nonsensical more often!

Wait, a Funk topic that gets derailed into an actual serious discussion (about colloquialisms and semantics, no less) instead of a bunch of random spam?!?!?! What happened to the Pav I used to know??? Is this a sign of the apocalypse??

"Called out of work" means you called work and told them you weren't coming in...which means you'll be out of work...I dont see whats so hard to understand about that.

Maybe he was already working and was calling somebody else that was not in his work place, hence him "calling out of work"

Or maybe there's someone there named "Ofwork" and he's calling him out and is going to fight him and this whole fiasco has been a big typo.

Ok, I wasn't even going to take the time to explain my wordage because I find the whole "up in arms" thing going on here completely silly, but here goes.

I called "out" from work.

There. That should do it.
