I’m having major surgery at the end of the year which will require me to take about a week of PTO. December is usually a slow time for us so I don’t foresee it being busy aside from professors needing laptop carts. But I still feel guilty about taking time off. Has anyone figured out how to get rid of that guilt. I feel like it’s so deeply ingrained in our society that we have to give our heart and soul to our jobs and that taking time off is a huge no-no.
