I'm in management, writing to confirm this. I've seen many CV's, many gaps, never asked about it, I don't even assume why it happened.
Burnout is a known problem in our profession, I approach people with open mind, I experienced burnout myself and taking time off is desirable for mental health.
- gardenhedge 4y agoI am replying to this reply here because I can't reply on the original post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31203871 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31203871 Firstly: Do you think every comment should be positive? Secondly, how is my comment negative enough for you to make that reply? I asked a question and gave (honest) feedback on my reading of the article/post. > The list is obviously not for you But it IS on HN which I read. HN is a public forum that anyone can join and make comments. It is fair game to give feedback on articles. > this reflex where one needs to be so angry and vocal about something so benign (and useful) is what makes me question what have we done to ourselves as a society. The usefulness of the advice is completely subjective and the main point of the comment section is to discuss that. Would you rather comments like "love this", "+1", "all great advice!". That seems completely useless to me. Your questioning of society based on my question and feedback seems outrageously ridiculous to me. Ironically, a quick look shows you have multiple grey posts and are not a positive commenter yourself. Maybe your reply was actually some self reflection.
