Realization I had today (called off work)

I (m25) have been so stressed. My life has really been rough in the last year or so. I lost my mom to cancer, I had a bad breakup with my fiancee and girlfriend of 6 years and I started a new job that is decent paying but miserable. It is a call center job at a bank. Which is about as fun as you can imagine. I take about 100/150 calls a day and about 70/80 of them are simply unpleasant and of those 70/80 probably about 20/30 are me getting chewed out for 30 minutes by an angry customer because they spent all there money (lol). But the pay is better then what I had ever made before it was nearly 25 an hour which isn’t amazing money but I went from my last job 18 an hour so a pretty big jump.

I have made a new good friend at work and we often vent to each other about how awful it is. The reason I am sharing this is I started this job in September of last year and pretty much from the jump have hated it. We get 20 PTO days which is mixed in with our sick days which might seem like alot but I never get 2 days in a row off I work Monday , Tuesday , Wednesday , Friday and Saturday. So it’s hard to ever do anything fun. So I am pretty stingy with my PTO because they made it very clear if you use all your PTO there could be ramifications. I had used about 3 days to start the year as I went on a trip end of last year with my dad to see family which bled into the new year and have ended up calling out twice since then. Plus I have a trip planned for September with my dad which will be a week long and I also took my birthday off in June and wanna have some days left over for the end of the year and also maybe a day or 2 for sick days. So I get really anxious about PTO. I woke up sick today stomach issue I was gonna go tough it out at work because can’t use up all that PTO. But then I had a realization. At my job people leave left in right. Since I started I started with a team of 9 people only 3 of us remain. They beg people to stay. They aren’t gonna fire me. I am Now an experienced agent who has proven to be good at. My job. If I don’t feel well. I’m gonna take the day off. And I also thought I’m stressed about PTO but chances are I probably won’t be here in December anyways. (I am really trying to just get to the year mark for resume purposes). So screw it imma take the day off and rest
