DWs company did something like this. They were concerned about the accused vacation liability and did a high pressure campaign for people to take a few days off. She ended up getting laid off a few months later.

Say you’d rather save your vacation time for vacation and sick you are sick you think sick leave is the appropriate leave to take. I’d put this in email.

If you are still sick, get an online doctor note and submit it.

Depends on the state. I.am in NY and at my company, everybody who quits does it after they come back from vacation.

Yesterday I called out sick because I was not feeling well. My supervisor asked me if I would use my vacation time instead of sick leave. I told her no and now she is giving me attitude. Was I in the wrong???
BTW, I rarely call out sick and I also have a lot of sick time accrued.
Was your sick day right after a holiday or other vacation day? At my work we’ve been advised that calling out before/after a weekend or holiday is subject to scrutiny and/or discipline
I think this is likely it. And I wouldn't assume she thinks you were lying about being sick, rather she may have been under pressure regarding absences around holidays. Even if she's not not mad at you, it's possible some frustration over that pressure is coming through.
I wouldn't fret over this unless there are other signals of problems.

Were you sick or just calling in sick? Maybe accrued vacation liability on the balance sheet?

Your AL maxes out?
Clearly you need to take more time off.
But no you weren’t wrong.

I find it strange that you didn't ask her why. That's why this seems trollish.

My guess is that your job may be on the line. They dont have to pay out your sick leave if they fire you but they do have to pay you for your vacation days.
