  1. Read your employee handbook. It's boring but let me tell you a story why.

Our handbook stated in bad weather we could use a personal day. No questions asked.

Our team required 24/7 coverage.

I called my boss, asked him if I could work from home due to the bad weather. He said no. I then stated I will be taking a personal day then. He said that I could work from home then. I didn't have to risk my life or vehicle getting into work.

  1. Be aware of maintaining your mental health. You can't get it back. I wish I did things differently years ago. Now I'm a walking ball of crippling nonsensical anxiety issues.
