confused update, last night outside the checkout lane; I opened a benefits portal during a family situation and the vibe around time off felt different. Part of me wants to ignore it and just ship work, and part of me wants to prepare. I’ve got a 15-minute slot with a People Partner next week and want to use it well. My team is juggling a benefits portal plus day-to-day work, and the guidance keeps shifting. I'm not asking for confidential details, just patterns and what to watch for. Appreciate any perspective, even if it’s 'this is normal'.
