Hi everyone! Ik this is long but pls read and advice
I'm a new grad working in this project since last 9 months, I've been having terrible intermittent headaches since past couple of months and have taken time off for doctor appointment and sick days.
I was assigned some tasks which I am well aware of and ready to take up entirely once my teammate leaves for her maternity leave replacing her. I've been put into multiple tasks and applications since the time i joined this project and been reassigned to new tasks as and when they please.
They make use of me however they wish without acknowledging that they can't expect me to take up whatever tasks without prior knowledge or experience or bare minimum any support from the team leads.
I was planning to quit December this year but taking account that my teammate is leaving for maternity leave at the same time since I'll be replacing her I can't quit in Dec because learning this task/process alone takes around 4/5 months for a beginner and then there would be no one to help the person replacing me.
I badly wanted to quit but had been postponing it from months. Yesterday was my last straw, got assigned shit load of work where the team lead clearly doesn't know what to do himself.
I want some time off my work for my health betterment and want to take days off for 10 days Or so(if not quit my job at once) but we are in the middle of high priority upgrade and It's making me feel guilty.
