Hello, communicators:

A pinned tweet from Rachel Moskowitz, audience development manager for USA Today, can serve as a reminder of the importance of work/life balance and wellbeing as communicators scramble to respond to continuing crises and uncertainty:

Hey you.

Take your PTO. Sick days. Mental health days. Lunch breaks.

Do work during work hours and on work days. “Turn it off” otherwise.

Spend time with your family. Read a book. Explore nature.

You work hard. And 2020 is crazy.

You deserve a break.
