That doesn’t help your mental health at all.” --- ### “I have farmers that are shocked when I turn up sleepy and I go, “I’m really sorry I had a rough night”. And they say, “well what are you doing working now?” And I say, “well I have to”. And they ask if I don’t get time off. Some farmers are shocked.” --- ### “A lot of the time in this job having good colleagues and good bosses who will support you if you had a really bad night on call and no sleep. And who will take up the slack a bit if you’ve had no sleep. So, I’ve done that a few times with my colleagues. They’ve said, “go home, take a half day, we’ll manage. If it really goes bad we’ll call you back, but please just go home and get some sleep”. --- ### “I just know that I’ll feel bad about it then I’ll go to bed and know that I’ll feel better. I’m not good at being in a bad mood for a long period of time, I just know within myself you just need to feel that way for a bit then get a good night’s sleep and you’ll feel better in the morning.”
