Boss upset when I do what they ask

I've been feeling pretty sick the past few days. Despite this, I've been required to work. Yesterday was the worst of it and my direct supervisor called me while I was closing and told me that she wouldn't accept a call out for today without a doctor's note. A couple of hours later, I've booked a doctor's appointment and call to let her know. Instant guilt trip. “They're going to be really short tomorrow.” “That leaves this person closing by themselves.” “No one can cover for you.” Oh, okay. So you were just banking on going to the doctor being a big enough obstacle for me because you know you're not giving me insurance? Wow, cool. I'll still have a doctor's note for you excusing me like you asked for.

“They're going to be really short tomorrow.”

“That leaves this person closing by themselves.”

“No one can cover for you.”

Oh, okay. So you were just banking on going to the doctor being a big enough obstacle for me because you know you're not giving me insurance?
