no, never. i take days off when i don’t get enough sleep and know my productivity will be close to zero. maybe you need a more chill team that doesn’t guilt trip you into working when you should be resting
Anyone feel like it’s harder to take a sick day when your work remotely? Like when you had the office you could be like “I don’t want to get anyone sick” but when you work remotely I feel like I need to somehow justify why I can’t work ;_;
Hi Wojtek I have an amazing and supportive team. The guilt is all self-imposed
they’re so amazing you don’t want to leave them hanging? that’s a good problem to have then
After catching COVID a few times I had a hard time justifying calling out sick for a cold recently because while it sucked I wasn’t debilitated from it.
Just say you’re puking your brains out and no one will question. I feel ya tho.
My thought is it better to let yourself recover by taking the day off, vs fighting through it. I was sick last week and took a few days off. Mostly knowing that I wouldn’t be productive at all.
At the beginning but now it's the opposite. Still I also have slower days when not feeling good.
radicalize yourself by reading anti work literature and it becomes very easy 🤼♀️
