Even if you absolutely adore your job (unlikely) you still deserve and in most cases should require a nice relaxing vacation here and there. You work hard day in and day out and if its been a while since your last vacation, you may be exhibiting some of the classic signs. Check below to see if you need a vacation. Youve started ordering Mai Tais and Margaritas at during after work happy hours. You purchase travel sized bottles of shampoo, conditioner and soap. You make your children promise to send you a postcard when they stay over night in a few towns away. Youve started purchasing travel books that you know youll never even read. Youve just gotten a bikini wax when the temperature outside is only hovering above freezing. You wear Hawaiian shirts to work on casual Friday. Youve started spicing up your Monday morning coffee with a splash of liquor. Youve started using your suitcases for extra storage space. You havent had more than two days off in a row from work in over a year. Youve started using beach towels to dry yourself off after a shower. Youve spray painted snow covered backyard green. The Go-Gos Vacation has been playing on repeat in your car for weeks. Youve resorted to wearing sunglasses everyday, indoors and at night. Your eyes seem to be permanently blood shot from staring at your computer screen day in and day out. Youve started some boring project like installing corvette parts into your car because youve got nothing better to do when you get off of work. About the Author:
