Is NOBODY wrong in the post ? POST : My coworker has had addiction problems in the past which have gotten her fired from this job before. My work rehired her once they found out she was doing better. In the last couple months, she has started drinking again and it has seriously affected her work. She comes into work maybe three or four times a week for a few hours, but mostly works from home. No one else in the company is allowed to do this mind you. She took off this entire week without telling anyone because she needs to "work on herself".  Instead of getting reprimanded, management is sending her flowers to get better. They asked me to order the flowers and I said I didn't want to because I'm really pissed. I don't see why she isn't being held accountable for her actions. Am I the asshole because I think she should be fired rather than coddled? Or should  I be more empathetic?
