But I decided that my physical and mental health (some would say I waited to long for that one) was more important than posting a report or attending a useless meeting. Stepping back a step or two will make a new person out of you.Coffeypothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08601474604616163167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12159162.post-27418516787101799942009-02-28T20:50:00.000-05:002009-02-28T20:50:00.000-05:00I think that is a wise choice.

Also, could you do a half day working from home at all? It would be nice to work, say, Thursday afternoon from home and then have Fridays off for a month or two. I know what you mean about letting go, though--I have to admit that I check in through email and VPN every Friday that I'm technically supposed to be off.Electronic Goosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161775422936225445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12159162.post-84198288720442303912009-02-27T17:08:00.000-05:002009-02-27T17:08:00.000-05:00That's all?

I got so tired of all the working, the commute, the OT, etc. I too was never home and so miserable and out of touch with myself and my life. Though I was not going for my masters so there is a big difference here. BUT I do understand. Good for you! Don't forget to take care of yourself :)Momma Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082502507626151251noreply@blogger.com
