My boss is advertising my job because I got sick before some pre-approved vacation time.

Not to mention, the actual job title was being falsely advertised, which in turn was not a marketing job but rather an administration one. His work ethic is still superb, but it has been difficult working around his new schedule. What would have been the appropriate thing for me to do during a situation like this?
