Of selfishness and professionalism

[monshogaku]

Today marks the 11th straight night I have worked at my job. The schedule had me working tomorrow. Earlier this morning, I spoke up and asked for tomorrow night off. While I am a professional and will do my job to the best of my abilities, I am aware that I am beginning to hit a certain point both mentally and emotionally where I can feel the strain. In such cases, I swallow my duty and become a bit selfish. Time to rest and enjoy the pleasures of life, and to allow myself to recharge. Because as Dirty Harry once said, "Man's gotta know his limitations.".
