Sucker...
One of the great things about living in Ontario is the 1 year parental leave we get. It's not just maternity, it can also be paternity leave. Both of which require lots of communication between employer and employee but totally rocks.
For instance, lets say my wife was having another baby (which she's not) and she wants to stay home for the first 7 months. She can then go back to her job (or an equivalent position provided by the employer) and I could take up to 5 months off from my job to stay at home with our child and return to the same or an equivalent job.
No faking doctors notes. Lots of time for a temp to fill in a position. Lots of time for employers to react to the change in employees. And best of all, a fair amount of time to grow with your child and make sure they get the best care during the crucial first year.
In the mean time, Shibo, you have my sympathy. I've done your job for another company and I can imagine what it must be like to be down by three people and have to make up those extra shifts. I actually enjoyed doing collections more than the credit granting... but then again I'm pretty sadistic...

Gullible isn't in the dictionary.
