I've got five weeks of unpaid leave left until I go back to the most traditional of my part-time jobs, but it started back last week, and since then I've been fielding a barrage of emails, phone calls, and texts, including on weekends.
It's a bit of a perfect storm: new boss, clueless replacement, general chaos...but still, it dawns on me that it might have just been easier to go back to work than to take time off, because each week I miss is going to cost me considerably in terms of the unpaid time I'm having to put in, the stress fielding and thinking about the crazy.... not to mention whatever I'll need to do to undo damage on the back end.
File under: poisoned apples.
