Your grey haired, middle aged -manager would try have you believe it...

Some collagen injected Instagram nobody would have you chanting it...

And your parents, well, they've probably said it...

But no.

Adapting to chronic stress is not something you should be expected to do.

It's not normal.

And it CERTAINLY, isn't 'part of the job'
