When you take vacation from say, WalMart, and they have someone else cover your shift, who is paying? The EMPLOYER. 
Lol.
Back in my college days, I worked in a temp agency.
My sole responsibility was filling in for employees on leave.
Whether it was maternity leave, vacations or illnesses, it was my job to temporarily fill that void.
That was how the temp agency made money... employers filling the void of employees on paid breaks.
