RULES:
Most people who get promoted in my company are taking holidays after being hired, are back from maternity/paternity leave, are taking lots of break, some don't even work the hours they should.
The key is just to be visible.
Those who work a lot silently are not visible because they think they will be noticed, and the management needs them to stay where they are to do the hard work.
Just take your leaves.
"timeless advice" motherfuckers when PTO stops existing 😯
I don't think I agree with the second comment. I work in a team. If you just take it and leave them to handle your shit, you are an asshoke. If you say it in advance and sort your stuff, then do whatever you want
There's been a misunderstanding here. It seems like you are trying to share a balanced and nuanced opinion. That's a major faux pas around here, on the internet. Please find yourself an establishment where such vulgar language isn't frowned upon.
My job literally forces me to take all my leave by end of FY unless I have a very good reason.
Managers are wierdly cranky when it's time to manage.
Ugh, soon...once things stop exploding in infascinating ways my coworkers aren't equipped to handle without leaving a bonfire for my return. Not their fault, I'm just the guy tasked with the oddball stuff that looks nothing like their day-to-day. Fine when things are the normal amount of on fire, less so when actively erupting and (recently) literally on fire.
Take some time off my dude, it's not worth your health and being that guy will get in the cracks before you realize something is off. After taking two weeks off recently I came back to the world on fire and have started to realize I don't care that much!
I am lucky to get the time I do (It's more than most people I know) but I recently too two full weeks off to spend with my wife for our 20th anniversary, it was amazing. After I got back to work I had hundreds of emails to catch up on and so much extra work that had piled up I started thinking about all the extra work I had taken on over the years to "cover down" for people and then realized that was the most consecutive time I've taken off in the past 9 years.
I think it's time for a change. Not a job change per-se, but time to start taking time for me, my family, and my health.
