Dear All,
I’m actually not quite sure why people are complaining about their jobs, their colleagues, or their boss over and over again, instead of changes something………my credo is: love it, change it, or leave it…
Anyways, for those of you who return from vacation and hate to get back into the office, the so-called “Post-Holiday-Syndrome” can get compensated by these measures, following to Süddeutsche Zeitung:
- Office Gossip: yip, you’re part of a soap…we all are…and there is always someone with greater problems than yours… 😉
- Good coffee: enjoy the taste and the caffeine boost
- Don’t think too much about day 1, just pop-up in the office and take what comes up
- Continue (at least a few) of the rituals you had during vacation, i.e. finish the book you started, or wear your sun glasses
- Put your first day after vacation to a Wednesday or Thursday (or Friday 😉 …get your mails done and enjoy the weekend-break… (btw: I see so many people now doing 4-day weeks, think about it!)
- Control your bio-rhythm -> go to bed early…and leave your bed/house totally refreshed
- Put your favorite tasks to day 1: meet the loveliest customers, do a brainstorming to plan the next quarter, etc.
- Bring a nice souvenir, and put it on your desk – remember, dream, …and dive into work slowly…and not too deep ;D
- Plan your next vacation…and do not forget talk about it, and the one which just ended… 😉
Cheers,
Sebastian Grodzietzki
