It's okay, not your fault you're not feeling well (or IS it 🧐). Your team will be fine, you definitely needed the rest!

Lol thanks. I hope so. I was trying to put in the hours so I can the rest of the month off after tax season. But looks like it backfired. #lessonlearned

Is your job life or death, or worth dying for? Will they erect a statue in your honor if you die? If no, then why push it? Why even need to vent? People get sick and employers get over it. Just a job 🤷‍♂️

I was sick during 9/15 deadline and felt really bad when I had to take a day off to recover. But it was all okay. When I thought I put a burden on your team but it turned out that my team still did well without me. I felt relieved. So don’t worry. They can survive without you.

Was just thinking about this yesterday as everyone is trying to put in extra hours at the expense of sleep, but if you end up getting sick then all those extra hours just replace the hours you are missing. Gotta find the right balance, but the work environment makes it difficult.

Got covid from the UK , double vaxxed , and symptoms are wildly atrocious. Everyday I have different issues. I went from no fever to 102.4 in a couple of minutes. Blood oxygen dropped dangerously low and bounced back in a few minutes. Chills , cold sweats. My newest one is that my legs are so achey and sore it feels like they were beaten with a bat , just nonstop pain and can’t sleep. Anyone else experience these?
