This reminds me of the time I started working on a project and one of the manager went on a vacation, leaving me with a pile load of directionless work. After he came back, I was made aware that taking a break now would be bad, so I didn't. The project went sideways, I was burnt out, somebody had to take the blame. Taking break really is part of the job, it strikes me even more reading this article, because when you are expendable, you don't want to be burnt out as it you make easy target as a scapegoat.
