    That high? I can only aspire to that level of professionalism...

    I had to quit a gig when I got shingles which left me mostly bedridden for 2 weeks on antiviral tablets and tbh I wouldn't give it too much thought, your health matters and if you have to clock out and get better then do it and pick up the next contract.

    Depends what you mean by health, and regretting your decision.

    Was the contract directly affecting your health? eg stress, depression (I'm not asking what it was!) - I'd bin it quick smart.
