A couple years ago I started saying f*** it and taking time off. What really got to me, the person I work for would take at least 4 vacations a year, but I always felt bad doing that because so much relied on my skills. If he's gone for a week, no one notices. If I'm gone for a week, people tell him to leave and come back when I am back at work. I learned that when I fell out of an attic and had a forced week off. After that, I decided TV emergencies can wait.
