VipaGTS 08/09/21 2:36:06 PM #18:	There is nothing wrong with working hard and being proud of doing your job...Where it starts to fall into toxicity is when people think that doing extra and picking up extra days will help them get ahead, when most employers don't give a fuck and will ignore all of that the moment you make one little mistake. So go ahead and take pride in your job, but also take pride in using your day offs, PTO, and keeping your mental health. Your job shouldn't define you.
