Whew… T.G.I.F. am I right?
You're probably still reeling from the post-holiday slump and are just now figuring out that January is the watered down, contemporary version of the dark ages. At least in the workforce it is! All of this "circling back" from your boss is probably getting you down, but it can always be worse—I think.
As you sit down at your desk today, count your blessings. The Mexican food spot near your office has half-priced margaritas during happy hour, it's Friday, and you have the rest of the weekend to recharge and reset until you are subjected to another five days of cubicle rotting. This vicious cycle is what you make of it, so don't feel hopeless just yet.
If there's another thing to look forward to, it's almost tax season. For the folks expecting a hefty return this year, don't spend it all in one place. If you save enough, you'll finally be able to cash in the 1 million hours of PTO you've been hoarding since your return to office mandate. Life might feel a bit cyclical and the burnout is definitely real, but there's nothing like a Friday evening margarita/taco pairing to ease all your troubles. Scroll below if you're seeking extra employee solidarity on this lovely Friday afternoon!
