I'm talking tiring physically, doing manual labour and such in addition to just being tired tired. Don't get to enjoy the first night much if it is lights out once you get home
My business trips aren't that fancy
I am physically exhausted after spending some weeks, practically without a free day, in a fucking warehouse
I'm always just so happy to be home again and have all the stuff I've wanted to do, that I dreamed up during suffering on site.
But I'm too exhausted to actually do anything...
Still, the first night is always the best
Came home last time, after working with a fever/flu again, and just wanted to drop dead.
But the euphoria of being home again keeps me going for the first night.
Which pretty much means, I'll have a few beers and talk with my wife.
Can't do anything reasonable, but I really enjoy those few hours
