I've had a hybrid role for the past 4 years where I get unlimited sick days (well 14 really until fmla kicked in), 3 weeks of vacation, 3 personal days. I am also given the week after Xmas off. if my toddlers are sick I can work at home with them. Interviewing w fortune 500 that offers 15 pto days that have to use for sick days too.Strictly in office job 9-5 and dress bus.prof. These bad benefits? Outdated culture?I am a seasoned professional. Seems tough.

I’m really sorry for your loss. It’s okay to not be at full speed right now. You did what you could, and that’s enough. Can you give yourself a little grace this weekend?

Thank you, I am trying. I definitely feel better after a night’s sleep.
Life happens and sometimes it hits hard. It's okay to take a break and catch your breath. Missing deadlines is not ideal but everyone reaches a breaking point sometimes. Take a break this weekend and give yourself space to heal. Then come Monday be ready to work.
So sorry for your loss. While I agree that a restful weekend should help, I also wonder if you’d be able to get any of this work done over the weekend so that you don’t walk into a huge pile of work on Monday?

Even if you are working at 46% and 46% is your max capacity for the day, you really did give your 100%.
Keep the lines of communication open with folks that you are working with. And give yourself some time to rest this weekend.

Thank you for your kind words. I guess that really is true. My capacity was lower this week, but I still did as much as I could with the energy I had.

It happens, some weeks you smash it and other weeks don't go so well. It's all part of being human. Take each day as it comes and allow yourself to feel however feels right for you
