Thanks for all the advice. It all makes total sense. Re. Work - imagine being dropped in at the deep end and then things get even worse. Obviously my long hours are partly due to staff shortage which is not something which can be addressed overnight. They are also due to my competency in my role - who knew when you can do your job, others would ask for help!đ My hours are not sustainable over the long term and without leave I will burn out. Things may ease slightly as my colleagues gain more experience. I have 12 years in role, next has 18 months and the last two have 6 months. With no one other than me to provide advice and guidance, things are not easy.
This thread has temporarily turning in to a Work Rant thread!
I will try and move away from my desk a bit more and stop answering emails at 4am (wife wasnât pleased about that). Itâs just such a difficult situation at the moment and there isnât really an easy solution. The joys of COVID and work!
