Having a Rant!

[eash]

I booked to take annual leave tomorrow as I have an interview (obviously didn't tell my boss that bit) but was only allowed it if I could get another colleague to cover me which I did. However, she has called in sick today so I'm now in limbo about what to do tomorrow. She said she would call later to let me know how she feels and I know she can't help it but I feel like I am in a prison and am never able to leave as it all depends if I can get cover. I mean what would they do if I got sick as I can't arrange cover if that happened. They seem to take advantage of me and I've really got the hump. Wish I'd never asked for annual leave tomorrow now and just called in sick myself, wonder how they would cope? It's a bit late to do that now though as I already requested it as annual leave...
Aaaragh!
Sorry to rant, just had to get it off my chest!

Well I think my ranting has paid off because another colleague has said if colleague 'A' is still sick tomorrow he will cover me but colleague 'A' has phoned in and said she will be well enough to cover me tomorrow. Phew!
Seriously though guys, thanks for all your advice and letting me have a rant. The sooner I get out this place the better!
