In toxic cultures, being a workaholic is normalized and sacrificing sleep is glorified. The best way to get ahead is to burn out.
In healthy cultures, quality of life is expected and having a life is celebrated. You're encouraged to put your well-being above your work.
New changes to the highway code. 🤔 But honestly…when cycling I think the best way to avoid a left or a right hook is to stay behind the leading car.

This week in ICU, we’ve got a lot of COVID- currently around half our level 3 (ventilator) beds are filled with patients with COVID. A lot of the patients are double vaccinated, and pressures are rising from other conditions.
