I feel so guilty because I just started this new job and way before I even had the interview I booked tickets to go see my dads family because im only able to see them 1 time a year. Im leaving for 18 days and there is this feeling of missing out on work. Yet I need to go visit my family. I physically and emotionally need to see my family. My boss says that stuff happens and my job will be waiting for me. But I still feel like im letting him as well as my job down. And it certainly doesn’t help that today was my first day :(. When I told him about this in the interview process he said there shouldn’t be a problem. Now that i think about it, im afraid of what the other employees will think of me when I just up and leave. I feel like a horrible person.

Don’t worry about it! Your boss said it was okay, so go ahead and see your family! I’m sure if you explained it to some coworkers, they would actually think you did the right thing! Stop worrying about it so much.
