Well @dannygreen, I had two serious illnesses last year and since then I feel very tired if I work for more than 12 or 14 hours a day. (Today was just 12 hours work). I think I have to ask for part-time - maybe work 4 days for 15 hours each. My doctor says that even 60 hours a week would be too much, so I could always retire but then who would do the work?
At least that way I could meet my family more.
It came home to me when my oldest son spoke his first words to me. He said “who are you?”.
You’d think he would know that.
I mean, he’s 27 years old, and must have seen me once or twice in our house.
@swissclive is that statement about your son true?
I apologize but at first I thought that you are trolling us.
It illustrates the point. I should work less.
I understand that your work is important to you, but right now it is exactly the moment when you have to give your body to rebuild. I think "everything that's done - all for the better" - is an old saying, the meaning that says that everything that happens to us should be taken lightly.
I think now this is the chance in your life when you can spend time with your son, I think that the family is very important.
I think that the decision to work on a full-time basis is the most accurate. Your doctor should be right.
I wish you to make the right decision
