@silent_wolf We just get vacation pay on each cheque as opposed to actual days. It's kind of chill? I left early because it's pretty physical and I was struggling but it's chill in the sense that I can eat while I work, take breaks whenever I need to, and nobody ever tells me I'm working too slow.

@rickydom 47 days until our due date! I was definitely hoping I could come back 5 days a week and just work a few weeks to get it all done. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up a couple days here and there so it's not cutting it so close! I went on mat leave super early because my job is fairly...
