Is it worth stressing out about work?

I'm not a person that stresses about work though I used to be one. In my first workplace I really made myself sick about the work and the responsabilities, but then I switched job and started working offshore, there I really understood how it's important to forget your job once your shift is over. Because you work 12 or 14 hours in a row then you are off, and you need to be off or you'll go mad. That has been good training for me to understand you don't need to stress too much about it. When I switched job again I really was a different person and I no longer worry/stress about it. Once my workday is over, it's over, I shut the office door behind me and whatever happened during the day doesn't exist anymore. And I don't think it worths stressing, at all. You have a life, and a life is worths living, not stressing.

In my opinion nothing is worth stressing yourself out so much that you make yourself ill. It's going to be harder to finish that project if she's so stressed that she's sick. I agree that letting your boss know in advance that you can't finish it in time and give a good explanation as to why shouldn't be all that bad. As long as it doesn't happen repeatedly I would suppose.
