So...the freak show of a coworker that I cover for when she's out (which is at least once a week as of late) called in today to say that she was in a car accident and must go see her doctor immediately. She later sent in an email saying that she was also diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and yadda, yadda, yadda...

Basically it means she's going to be out a lot, will have a somewhat genuine medical reason to NOT get fired, and I will wind up doing all of her work as usual.

Why do I feel like I'm being used here....
