OK, I read this felt a wave of relief. I'm not the only one. 1 year off sounds like torture to me.
I'm not saying 1 year with my kid is torture. 1 year in the Caribbean would also be torture to me. I get cabin fever after a few weeks.
My company did give me 1 month and it was awesome. I was also very happy to return to work after 2 (1 month unpaid). It was refreshing to engage that part of my brain again.
- hesdeadjim 8y agoYea I have zero desire to be off from work for that long. I took a sabbatical/break between projects from May until around September this year. I put myself under no real pressure to do anything, and during the weekdays I was free to go mountain biking and do whatever else I felt like. Yet still I worked on random projects for about 60% of the time the entire break. I just crave the deep flow state that comes from building things too much.
