CarelessKai 2 points 2y ago
yup and you don’t need to disclose exactly why either, just tell your SM that it was a mental health day

Best of luck at your interviews!!


Don't feel guilty either - this job is ALOT. I left back in June after a year to the date, and I am so much happier. It's more stress than it's worth, so a mental health day is definitely warranted. To be honest, I wished that as a benefit they offered 2 mental health days a year, at like 50% pay (as a start, anyways, for partners with 20+ hours. A benefit like that would be so much more rewarding than that app or whatever program it was they offered around the time I left.
