After a well-deserved week of vacation I got mostly caught up yesterday. As with nearly every vacation in my professional life, I worked a little while I was off. I read every email, answered a few. I replied to a few texts and took a couple of phone calls. I logged on and listened to one short Teams meeting.
The wife admonished, “You’re on vacation!”
The thing is, that 3/4 hour or so I spent each day keeping abreast paradoxically helped me better enjoy my vacation. More importantly, it kept me from being completely overwhelmed when I logged on yesterday morning.
Am I a workaholic? I don’t believe so. Do I care about my job? Very much. If I had the means would I retire? Absolutely, unequivocally, yes.
