In this case, take the role of the employee who does faithfully show up to work. I have a co-worker that calls off a lot and also pulls no show/no calls (probably the most unprofessional behavior in my opinion). Now, how do you feel? Being unable to count on a co-worker sucks ass. I deal with it and it's gotten me to the point of just not speaking to certain people.

BUT, I don't think the gossip is called for.

First thing, don't blame your boss for a supposed lack of documentation concerning preapproved time off. Particularly if it happened more than once. If it did happen once, the next time you should have quadruple checked with your boss to make sure they were aware you were not coming in. Second, start being a model employee. Since you don't like it and are trying to leave, great. But, don't give anyone else any more cause to question your integrity.

Second, simply ignore the woman. You are leaving soon, she is not a god, and since it seems you don't have much emotional investment in this job, don't invest any more energy into this issue. Focus on leaving and things outside of the job....
