Still better than those who had to keep working through it - medical professionals, especially.

I'm 51 and the longest I've ever been able to take off of work consecutively was a week. I've been working weekends since I was 11. I did get one weekend off last year though.

Oh for sure. I count my blessings. I don’t think I could even handle being frontline medical in good times.
