There's this undeniable silence in the air which dictates that within the next few days, many people will either be starting their leave or are very close to getting there.
Take for example my colleague just behind me. She goes on leave within the next 2 days...and although there might be some things to do - the mind has long gone and parked itself on the glistening shores of the holiday destination.
The colleague right next to her, who under normal circumstances is quite the diligent employee, is downright throwing his toys out the cot today. Ranging from anything such as the aircon which now uncomfortably blows directly on him, to my bright blue exercise ball (which has now oddly found a new home in a cupboard), to the system testing project being a pain. All of which normally wouldn’t be even the slightest problem.
Now honestly speaking, being any other time of the year, this reaction of colleagues toward the working environment and general attitude toward the actual work itself, could have left me feeling a bit dissatisfied and irritated.
But being December, with a pleasant breeze flowing through my work window, and after a relaxed light buffet Woolies lunch with said female colleague and some Christmas shopping later…I’m feeling quite in the holiday spirit myself.
Hmmm…makes the work to be completed before going on leave that much more bearable.
Happy days J
