Yuki's Passion 1 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I think we should be given two vacations: 1 is to enjoy your vacation, the other is to recover from your vacation. Anybody else feeling exhausted after traveling this summer? Link to post Share on other sites

scouser 4 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Same here. Takes a while when I'm back to get back into the groove. Link to post Share on other sites
Sciclone 2 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Fortunately we usually get an overnight flight from Tokyo (sat night-sun morning), so with the 1hr time difference, its pretty good. I make sure I take the monday off though, as I am usually brain dead the next day.. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Anyone else have problems eating too much when they get back to Japan? I eat and drink a lot - more than usual - when I'm back in the UK and when I get back here I seem to continue for a while....always hungry! Link to post Share on other sites

Curt 1 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 We foreigners should be given a "readjustment" holiday when we come back. Paid of course. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 there's no substitute for laziness. Or you could replace that with hardwork. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 yep your right Thurs.....laziness is the best Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Saw a shirt that said give 100% at work: 13% on monday 26% on Tuesday 38% on Wednesday 14% on Thursday 9% on Friday SO TRUE!!! Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 a lot less on Fridays, more on Tuesdays perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites
fukdane 2 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I give 100% every single day and I'm sure you all do too. Especially after a holiday when I feel really guilty about taking a holiday. Lovely omiyage all round. I need to work that extra 100% to make up for my badness. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I have always considered work to be a major inconvenience to my lifestyle. The amount of inconvenience I allow my work to affect my life is directly proportional to the amount I'm paid. Pay me more and I'll work more. With me you get value for money but you only get what you pay for. Link to post Share on other sites
