Hi. Thank you! Yes, I've been working from home 2 days a week for quite some time... I just recently requested and was approved to work 3 days a week.... I work so hard, regardless of whether it's at home or the office, and my job is pretty stressful.... It seems that I use any energy I have to make sure no one can tell (except for my close friend there) what a hard time I'm having... Your suggestion makes perfect sense... My Mother said the same thing just this week! I had finally told my boss, but she is very cold and so I kept it very high level, no low level details... She is very unemotional, so I told her just the bare info she needed to know... I still don't think she 'gets it' though. I've thought about even requesting to get put on the next layoff list... I love my career so much... it's heartbreaking to think I wouldn't have it anymore, but I know I can't keep doing this... so thanks for that suggestion. I guess I need to hear that. My neurologist has also told me maybe I'm killing myself to do something that I really shouldn't be doing anymore.....I thnk another part of it is that I've been kind of a 'rock star' there for years and now I would have to possibly leave on a bad note, leaving behind a less than stellar 'legacy'... I know that's all ego and pride and I need to drop it, but I've worked so hard in this man's world to get where I'm at... and now I may need to stop covering and start letting my flaws show... I guess that what it comes down to.... that's hard for some reason. 'm on my own and also my son is still depending on me, so not sure what I would do... but I better start figuring it out..... Thanks for the kind words and for the encouragement. It means a lot. - Denise (babycakes)
