When it’s time to Relax from Work


When you know you had enough and need a tiny break ….

75% of daily conversations with other people NOT from your work are work related … your whole day is planned around your work … even shopping … what is more appropriate for my working environment …

You start forgetting your personal mobile but not your work mobile. Your heart skips a beat when your work mobile rings or even receive a message, damn those advertisement messages!!! For sure, no one at work is going to call to say HI … something happened

All dressed up and ready to go out and have a good time but instead of wearing your necklace you actually wear your work badge … I know pathetic!!

Someone is taking their yearly vacation and you just remember that yours was supposed to be last month and you didn’t take it!!! Don’t they have HR department to remind of such things

Want to use the elevator and as an idiot you start waving your security pass in front of it like that is going to make it move … you actually pause and think for a second about what you are doing and what you are supposed to do … push that button, AHA!!!

Hallucination … imagining your work mobile ringing … whenever you go out you seem to see people from work …

At home … checking your personal email account and somehow you just want to check your work email and then just reply to this and answer that and remind this ….

You plan to skip a day everytime you wake up … but you never do … and if you want, you give a headstart …

tara the day after tomorrow I’m taking a day off
Why? Is it something important, an appointment …
El-sara7a No … just want to relax for a day ..
Hmmmm
You can call me anytime
Hmmmm … OK just leave your mobile on
No problem, just call anytime .. I’m awake …

That’s not skipping … that’s some lame excuse for something …

    I hate my work phone so much I want to destroy it and i feel sorry for it! When I get a message I jump when its after work..

    When I’m taking a real brake I shut off my phone.. don’t need people ringing me for no reason! It drives me nuts! I really do go nuts!

    shutting off my work phone … bit bold for me at this moment… since major consequences will happen if they couldn’t get ahold of you!!! though I believe everything can wait, but no one seems to share this with me ;P
