The girls I used to work with would always say "call out" instead of "calling in"...I always thought it was kind of weird, too.
One thing I kept hearing that I thought sounded funny was when I moved to town, everybody kept saying stuff like, "What are you trying to do tonight?" or "I'm not trying to hear you." I'd be like, "Um...I'm not trying to do anything...I am doing something." It was like they used "trying" to mean what you were definitely doing. Took me a while to figure that one out.
