Is anyone else going back to work...

tomorrow after a long break?

The first two weeks of December I was doing Jury Service, I was on annual leave the third, the fourth was Christmas week when we close down......I have been away for so long the password on my work's laptop has expired :eek:

I'll probably have 1800 emails, and lots of crappy stuff to do. I'd got used to sitting on my backside not doing much, to be honest :j

    Well, I only had a week off but it was tough going in this morning. But, of course, it's always worse in your mind, and I found it got easier and easier as the day went on. :)

    I went back to work last Wednesday after having the 25th/26th/27th off.
  • I am dreading tomorrow! I hate my job and most of the people i work with and dread going in most days if i am honest BUT i have been off since 19th December until tomorrow which sounds like AGES but seems to have flown by :( Also, my boss decided that tomorrow is going to be an Inset day, so will all be OFSTED focused and that'll just fill everyone with even more angst and dread about them than normal! First day back and basically a hell-ish day ahead.... So.... YES i am in total agreement and am dreading it!!! :(:(
    Baldrick, does it have to be this way? Our valued friendship ending with me cutting you up into strips and telling the prince that you walked over a very sharp cattle grid in an extremely heavy hat?
  • Going back after 2 weeks away.

    Not looking forward to early morning starts and the morning wait at the bus stop in the freezing cold.
  • Starting a new job next week after being off for three months. Very happy but still a bit daunting. I wont have the emails but having to get up and stick to a routine will be fun!

    Well done you, I hope you enjoy it and get int he swing! I've, worked for the same company for 17 years, so there shouldn't be too many surprises. It will be nice to get back into a routine again though.

    I'm back tomorrow, just for the afternoon as I have a big filling needed on one of my teeth! :eek: Then I'm off to my mother's, she's having a pacemaker fitted on Wednesday and I'm taking her in. I don't usually work Thursday so my first full day in should be Friday.

    Last year I was off from the end of November to mid-March, and then on a phased return ... not much fun going in after that!
