derivativeworks replied to your post “took the day off today because I was exhausted after yesterday and...”
Most people don’t use up all their sick days. That means they are allowing themselves to be paid less. You should not feel guilty. America is weird and encourages you to work until your body falls apart.
of course then I got into work today and realized that a) I’d forgotten the phone call I was supposed to be on with the author from hell b) I’d gotten an email about arranging a recording I’d also forgotten was yesterday and c) I had almost 70 unread emails in my inbox so I’m not sure it was worth it
(I mean, it was. but also it wasn’t. also why is my life just like this right now, I know why, it’s because it’s the busy season right now and also I’m just kind of a nervous wreck for unrelated reasons)
