Be a professional

I am thinking of being professional. I have caught a cold and felt bad these days... headache and stomachache, but kept working as usual or more than that, because my job is based on mass-communication. The readers are waiting for information and news, and they do not care about my personal health. How severe the reality is... but that is the fact, at least I try to think that way.

But recently, I can see the situation has been changing. Many subordinates ask for holidays easily. You can say that kind of behaviour is the symbol of lack of professionalism and I would take it that way. However, if you need to keep your health well, do you really have to keep working?

I do not have any answer.
