Antiwork

I got sick Friday morning and still went to work, and my manager said that I’m inconveniencing them by being late

For context, I am currently a receptionist at a doctor’s office. I got up Friday morning and had really bad stomach issues. I had a horrible feeling in my stomach and threw up my breakfast after trying to eat it. I took some pepto bismol and texted my manager that I would be 10 minutes late. She said “okay” but after that she said “Keep in mind that we have two 8:45 appointments and being late will inconvenience the office.” I was scheduled to get there at 8:30 and ended up getting there around 8:40. I honestly wanna quit after that but I don’t have any other options to make money, lol. I really don’t understand how 10 minutes will make that much of a difference. Am I overreacting or was this wrong of them?
