I have never worked in a situation where some covered for me. Even when I go on a scheduled vaca, my work for an entire week will still be there when I return.

Maybe they mean in a retail-like setting?
Like you, unless it was a dire emergency, I've never had a job where people had to cover someone else's work when absent nor when I had to do the work of a co-worker who had to leave to care for a child.
