How quickly can I do my job afterwards? Also: stairs

Hi all, having mine out in 3 days.

I'm a librarian/archivist. I know about the post-op 'no lifting more than 8 pounds', but what about pushing things like a book cart or shopping cart? Also, my bedroom and main bathroom are on the second floor of my house. How quickly were you able to handle stairs post-op?

I think I'm going overboard with the prep. I've got a binder, compression socks, I'm scouring this subreddit for suggestions... Really nervous. Haven't had surgery since my wisdom teeth were removed in high school, and that was.... a while ago.
